Where We Work
The Campus
AltaSea is creating an urban, ocean-based research and blue technology innovation campus at the Port of Los Angeles where ocean innovators work together to understand and address current and future threats to our ocean environment. The cutting edge 450,000 square foot West Campus is built on a historic pier located in the sheltered harbor of the Port of Los Angeles, yet with unparalleled access to the deep ocean.
Professionals and students that gather at AltaSea’s 35-acre site will enjoy a state-of-the-art facility that includes 3,000 linear feet of deep-water dock space, over 50,000 square feet of adjacent wharf space, circulating seawater and marine life support systems throughout the facility, laboratories, research facilities and hands-on educational and job skills development spaces.

Center For Innovation Berths 58, 59, 60
Tenants can enjoy an open workspace featuring their own modular offices and labs within a warehouse shell construction. Additionally, all science and business partners will have full access to the waterfront berths and docks. Hands-on education experiences will provide students an interactive opportunity to collaborate with scientists from around the world.
The entire rooftop of the warehouse structure at Berths 58, 59, and 60 have been replaced and solar developer True Green has installed a 2.2-megawatt solar array, enough to power 700 homes and the nation’s largest solar installation at an ocean research and development facility.

Center for education and engagement Berth 57
Our fourth warehouse – Berth 57 – is designated to be the ocean science research and development facility for AltaSea’s partner universities and blue technology business. This 45,000 square foot warehouse will be home to ocean science research and clean marine technology and engineering laboratories for AltaSea’s partners, as well as providing flexible education and exhibition spaces for K-12 students and the general public throughout.
Completion is expected by 2025.
