Some of San Diego’s most celebrated bayfront destinations Seaport Village and the Coronado Ferry Landing are governed by an unfamiliar entity with power that, in 2021, will prove more consequential than ever.
Formed by the state in 1962, the San Diego Unified Port District spans 34 miles of coastline from Shelter Island to the border. The land was granted to the agency to hold on behalf of the public; it includes tidelands in San Diego, National City, Chula Vista, Imperial Beach and Coronado. It’s a self-funded, non-taxing entity governed by a board of seven commissioners who are appointed by their member cities.

Our elder son and daughter were both married there, and when necessary, Bill fills the pulpit, so we consider it to be our home church.
