The Daily Briefing
SAN PEDRO IN THE SHADOW OF THE QUEEN MARY
The Daily Breeze reports today that the plan to build two new cruise ship terminals at the Port of Los Angeles is running into some resistance. Since San Pedro is bereft of any real city governance, here’s what one of the Neighborhood Council members had to say about the potential of cruise ships parked along the shore:
“Visually, it’s going to be a monstrosity,” said June Burlingame Smith, president of the Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council. “Can you imagine something so tall just sitting there?” she asked. “It’s going to be an enormous eyesore.”
Sounds like Long Beach has heard this all before, no?
