Records were neither complete nor specific. Total acreage was 3.768. The five sites were used as personnel landings by motor launches from the USN fleet, except the 22nd Street site which was used mainly as a freight landing. Improvements made by the USN varied at each site, but included piers, wharves, personnel floats, moorings, buildings, and parking lots.
Site disposal records were limited. Approximate dates for last USN use of each landing site are as follows: 1945 at the breakwater, 1948 at the athletic field, 1947 at Berth 56/57, 1949 at 22nd Street, and 1933 at Fifth Street. Improvements used or made by the USN are not known to exist at any of landing sites. All sites are presently under the jurisdiction of the LAHD. Present
use of the sites are as follows: undisturbed water at the breakwater site, a youth center at the athletic field site, wharf and office space for the California Department of Fish and Game and sailboat storage at the Berth 56/57 site, a municipal fish market at the 22nd Street site, and a fire boat station at the Fifth Street site.
The USN used all sites as personnel landings for motor launches from the USN fleet, excepting the 22nd Street Landing which was used for freight. Improvements included four buildings at the Breakwater, Athletic Field, 22nd Street, and Fifth Street Landings, in addition to piers and floats. Facilities at Berth 56/57 included about four buildings, with floats and docks.
Currently nothing exists at the Breakwater Landing site. A new pier maintained by the Cabrillo Youth Facility is located at the Athletic Field Landing site. Municipal fish market facilities are located at the 22nd Street Landing site. A fire boat station is located at the Fifth Street Landing site. The California Department of Fish and Game and the Cabrillo Beach Yacht Club occupy the landing site at Berth 56/57. No improvements used or constructed by the USN in association with these landings are known to remain at any of the sites.
