Los Angeles seeks proposals for deep-water box terminal

[ October 2, 2025   //   Chris Lewis ]

The Port of Los Angeles is seeking proposals for the pre-development of Pier 500, a new stand-alone marine container terminal along the Pier 400 Channel. The selected company would enter into a public-private pre-development agreement with the port to scope the project’s financial feasibility, procure entitlements and handle other requirements needed before implementation and build-out. It would be the first new container terminal for the port in a generation, said executive director, Gene Seroka. Pier 500 would be a 200-acre site with two new berths and approximately 3,000 linear feet of new wharf. Located in natural deep water on the southern tip of the Port’s Terminal Island, it would allow for bigger, next generation cargo ships.
