The 448,000-sf community shopping center, known as Villa Marina Place, is just a few blocks from Fisherman's Village. It was purchased by M&A Realty Partners, a private investment group headquartered in San Francisco, which agreed to assume the $58-million mortgage on the property as part of the deal.
