Located at 4321 Illinois Street near El Cajon Boulevard, Maeve North Park is an under construction nine-story multifamily residential development by Murfey Company. Formerly announced as Stella Apartments, the project consists of 149 residential units above a basement level, with associated grading and landscape improvements. The development adds new housing to an established urban neighborhood near North Park’s commercial corridor.
The project’s residential program includes studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. Shared amenities and common areas extend the building’s program beyond the individual units, incorporating spaces for recreation, gathering, and outdoor use. The building’s vertical configuration allows for higher-density housing on an infill site close to neighborhood businesses and services.
Maeve’s location provides residents with access to North Park’s restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and neighborhood services. Its proximity to El Cajon Boulevard places the development within an established commercial corridor, where residential density can support local businesses and strengthen pedestrian activity.

The project secured $46.5 million in construction financing in January 2025, arranged by JLL Capital Markets for Murfey Company. Initially marketed as Stella Apartments, the development is now known as Maeve North Park, with completion anticipated in 2027.
