The news in brief

There were some Pedro-centric stories in the Breeze over the weekend, for those interested.

Der Governator visits San Pedro. Our fearless leader, Arnold Schwartzenegger, visited the home of Angel Ortiz Sr., who is currently serving in Iraq. Anyone catch any gubernatorial action on Sunday?


Sales of units at the Centre Street Lofts began. Construction is moving right along, soon a mix of new and old Pedrans will be testing the waters of Downtown living. From the article -

Retail spaces slated for the ground floor of the Centre Street Lofts haven't been leased yet, Froman said.

"We've not signed any leases," she said. "It's actually a little more challenging at this location because we're not bringing in a big-box or well-known, big-name companies. We're looking for local businesses."

Wanted to start a new business in Downtown San Pedro? Now's your chance to step up.


The San Pedro Peninsula Chamber of Commerce continues its quest to re-define itself as it searches for a new Executive Director.

So, today around 9am, there was a tractor that looked as though it was clearing out the scrub on the 22nd & Miner lot (below the Crescent bikepath). Anybody know if that signals a new park is on its way? That'd actually be pretty sweet.

It may be just routine brush clearance. They had a tractor doing it up by my office at Angels Gate last Friday.

they are clearing it to use for parking for the July 4 festivities.
The parking as part of the waterfront "enhancements" probably won't begin until early 2007.
..someone who knows...
