 Despite the trying times of a pandemic, another sign of San Pedro's evolution into the best up and coming neighborhood has arrived. Acme 5 Lifestyle opened on 624 Pacific Ave in October, 2020. The interior store highlights beautiful finds, while the basement level includes an exclusive art gallery section. Acme 5 Lifestyle was created by production designer Anton Goss, in 2017, as a Field of Dreams, “build it and they will come” endeavor. Having designed television sets for Oprah Winfrey or music shows like “The Voice”, he used this opportunity to move out of the studio and into the tactile world of living environmental design. Acme 5 has grown to include a full set of lifestyle related products, ranging from custom leather couches, specimen aloe trees and beautifully finished handmade teak furniture, to fire pits carved from boulders... The brand is ever evolving and meandering through the stream of creativity and opportunity. Stores are located in Santa Monica, Yucca Valley and Sane Pedro. Check them out today.  The Holland Partners project on 6th street is complete and leasing. These gorgeous apartments are providing much needed residential housing and adding consumer demand to the downtown area.
The five-story, 34-unit building – 32 apartments with two ground floor retail spaces located at 336 W. Seventh Street – is slated to be finished in 2022.
The notoriously slow City of LA has gotten things moving understanding the importance of supporting local businesses to keep the economy going. The circumstances aren’t ideal.
But for San Pedro, a long-unfulfilled dream of creating alfresco dining in the streets of the port town is quickly and finally becoming a realty. “Outdoor dining is something the community has wanted for 20 or 30 years,” said Tim McOsker, a member of the business improvement district. And while it took the coronavirus pandemic to get it on the fast track, the results, restaurant owners said they hope, will go a long way toward both adding to the downtown’s ambiance and toward helping them stay in business. |
