The bold new visual identity and fresh name reflect the evolution of this pioneering San Pedro-based project; the development has grown substantially from initial plans to reinvigorate the former Ports O’ Call restaurants (a high-yielding commercial hot spot reporting approximately $50 million in gross annual sales), into a modern and vibrant harbor-side entertainment district featuring a broad array of retail, dining, and public attractions unlike any other in Southern California—and beyond. As of press release distribution, West Harbor has secured signed letters of intent for over 33,500 square feet of waterside restaurant space, including a new concept from Greg Morena (owner of The Albright, the longest running restaurant on the Santa Monica Pier and San Pedro’s own Pappy’s Seafood), Southern California icon Gladstone’s Long Beach, and a new restaurant and market from chef/restaurateur Robert Bell (owner of Mama Terano and the former Chez Melange, a longtime beloved neighborhood institution). The project team is in near final, exclusive negotiations with Nederlander Concerts (for a 6,200-seat waterfront amphitheatre), Harbor Breeze Cruises (for waterside attractions, harbor cruises, water taxis, etc.), a brewery, beer garden, and more.

  • Los Angeles Planning Department Announces Major New Reorganization
    June 2010 Los Angeles Planning Department Announces Major New Reorganization BY MITCHELL B. MENZER The Los Angeles Department of City Planning recently announced an ambitious and potentially far-reaching reorganization based on two principles: First, entitlement projects will be staffed by a single Planning Department staff member who will handle all the entitlements work on a project, from advising the applicant before the case is filed, through the public hearings, and to issuing the final sign-offs for building permits. Second, all of the Planning Department’s case processing will take place within one of four Geographic Divisions organized within the Community Planning Bureau in order to allow staff members to focus more closely on particular communities. The department-wide change follows the first step in the geographic reorganization that began during the summer of 2008 and included the San Fernando Valley area. Currently, the Planning Department processes cases using a centralized structure in which certain types of cases, such as tract maps, variances, or conditional use permits, are processed by specialized units according to the type of entitlement sought. For example, all subdivision cases are handled by a single unit, without regard to the geographic location of the project. Variances requested by the same applicant would be handled by another office. A zone change required for the same project would be handled by yet another unit in the Planning Department. While this centralized system allows planners to develop expertise in a particular type of entitlement, it has been criticized for being time-consuming and inefficient, requiring separate and sometimes redundant reviews by multiple planners for a single project, and often frustrating applicants who are required to deal with multiple points of contact within the Planning Department.

  • Construction of a Recreation Facility at Harbor Hills
    BORDER ISSUES STATUS REPORT Revised December 15, 2020 The following is a listing of the history and most recent status of all of the Border Issues that are currently being monitored by the City. PALOS VERDES PENINSULA WATER RELIABILITY PROJECT (ROLLING HILLS ESTATES, RANCHO PALOS VERDES AND UNINCORPORATED LOS ANGELES COUNTY) Last Update: December 15, 2020 California Water Service Company (CWSC) made a presentation to the City Council regarding its master plan for the Palos Verdes District on February 17, 2004. Part of this plan envisioned placing two (2) new water mains under Palos Verdes Drive North to replace an existing line serving the westerly Peninsula (the so-called “D-500 System”); and to supplement existing supply lines to the existing reservoirs at the top of the Peninsula (the so-called “Ridge System”). Another previous Border Issue upon which the City commented in 2003 was the Harbor-South Bay Water Recycling Project, proposed jointly by the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and the West Basin Municipal Water District (WBMWD) to provide reclaimed water for irrigation purposes. One of the proposed lines for this project (Lateral 6B) would be placed under Palos Verdes Drive North to serve existing and proposed golf courses and parks in Rolling Hills Estates, Palos Verdes Estates and County territory, as well as Green Hills Memorial Park in Rancho Palos Verdes. Adding to these water line projects is a plan by Southern California Edison (SCE) to underground existing utility lines along Palos Verdes Drive North between Rolling Hills Road and Montecillo Drive. All of these projects would require construction within the public right-of-way of Palos Verdes Drive North, which is already severely impacted by traffic during peak-hour periods.
