AltaSea
AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles is creating a world-class ocean-based campus where science, business and education come together to generate innovative solutions to the most critical global sustainability issues today: food, energy, and climate security. AltaSea accelerates scientific collaboration, facilitates job creation, and inspires the next generation for a more sustainable ocean. Built on a historic pier with access to the deep ocean, AltaSea’s campus brings people together to expand science-based understanding of the ocean; incubate and sustain ocean-related business; and pioneer new ocean-related education programs.
AltaSea is dedicated to finding rapid solutions for the planet’s most pressing challenges.
A recent report, which was co-authored by AltaSea at the Port of LA, found that:
California’s Ocean Economy supports 1.035 million jobs (direct, indirect and induced), or roughly seven percent (7%) of the state’s total workforce, and over $53 billion in total labor income. Globally, the Ocean Economy is projected by the OECD to double to $3 trillion over the next decade.
San Pedro Courthouse
The proposal for the redevelopment of the San Pedro Courthouse is for a mixed-use development that includes market rate and affordable housing, joint use open space, street level retail space and a location for a neighborhood grocery store.
This project is a good fit for downtown San Pedro,” said Supervisor Janice Hahn.
“Not only will it mean new apartments, retail space, and a much-needed new grocery store in the heart of downtown, it lives up to our values and is both union funded and union built.”

Little Italy of Los Angeles
Residents and visitors alike are welcome to experience the rich and lively Italian culture through hospitality, shopping and cultural events. Nestled right in the epicenter of the last remaining ethnic enclave of Italian Americans in Los Angeles, San Pedro has over a century of Italian history embedded into its roots.
The new downtown district is an innovative partnership among the Los Angeles Little Italy Association. Our projects include working with the City of LA to construct a state of the art piazza, or “town square” that pays homage to the fishing community and also gives off Mediterranean-Californian aesthetics.
The Little Italy of Los Angeles Association is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization.
