444 West Beech is the address for a planned 40-story residential tower in Little Italy, currently under review in the City of San Diego. The site is presently occupied by a four-story office building. The project represents another feather in the cap of a neighborhood that has lately become a hub for new residential skyscraper construction.

Per the publicly available scope of work in the City of San Diego's permitting portal, the tower is planned to include two ground floor retail spaces, two below-grade parking levels and seven above-grade parking levels, with tenant amenities including two swimming pools on floors 9 and 40. The permit process is heavily active, and has been since first applied for in September 2025. The project utilizes San Diego's Affordable Housing Density Bonus, but not Complete Communities.

Per San Diego's Downtown Development Activity Map, 444 West Beech's developer is Austin, TX-based real estate firm Endeavor Real Estate Group, who acquired the building in 2021 for $12.95 million. The architect for the project is currently not publicly known at time of writing.
