Pier 50 Earthquake Improvement Project

Located in Mission Bay, Pier 50 is an important maritime facility housing equipment, supplies, and labor needed for day-to-day operations and waterfront emergencies. Constructed in the 1920s and extended in the 1940s to surround the island of Mission Rock, this unique facility is home to the Port Maintenance Division, a United States Reserve Ready Force ship, and local contractors and transportation providers. The Pier was identified by City and Regional partners as critical for earthquake disaster response because disruption to Port Maintenance would impede inspections and repairs along the entire waterfront. This project will assess existing structural conditions, evaluate earthquake and sea level rise risk, develop an overall resilience strategy, and advance one or more early projects to improve earthquake performance and strengthen the City’s capability to respond and recover.
