Night-time rendering of newly redesigned amphitheater stage for San Pedro’s West Harbor waterfront development. A recent aerial rendering of the future West Harbor waterfront development at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro. Among the more spectacular plans for San Pedro’s new West Harbor waterfront redevelopment is a 6,200-seat outdoor amphitheater that will feature an array of musical genres, including popular rock acts.
Changes include a pivot of the stage slightly east, pointing more toward the port shipping channel’s water, and a design that allows for more flexibility to use small speaker boxes that can be more easily spaced apart and have a more specific directional focus. The venue will feature bookings across all genres and kinds of music, from jazz to rock and symphonic, perhaps even Broadway-style summer theater. Entertainment in the tradition of Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt and other singer-songwriters will likely be especially drawn to the site, said Nederlander COO Rena Wasserman.
With technology also having changed significantly in recent years, Wasserman said, the new design will allow smaller speakers to be directed and moved in specific ways to better control and focus the sound. The venue will occupy some 108,000 square feet at the southern end of the West Harbor waterfront development footprint. That will place it just east of the Southern Pacific Slip where commercial fishing boats tie up. The stage, which will sit 6 feet off the ground, will be on the north part of the footprint facing southeast with the audience to the south and facing north toward downtown San Pedro. Large screens will project out toward the audience.
