A 137-unit beachfront Vivo on Harbor residential building in San Pedro, built by Dallas-based High Street Residential, will shortly break ground.
The development will feature 16 affordable homes and around 1,500 square feet of retail space. The eight-story Vivo on Harbor property will have a variety of studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments in addition to a wealth of facilities.
Utilities for the Vivo on Harbor building will be fully underground, and the project benefits from a density bonus that allows it to reach 85 feet in height. San Pedro’s local zoning sets a height restriction of 61 feet.
Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2024, possibly before.
Vivo on Harbor location
The address of Vivo on Harbor is 511 S. Harbor Blvd., in the San Pedro Arts District, and close to other projects including the Port of Los Angeles Promenade and the recently-started West Harbor retail development project.

“We cherish San Pedro. We’ve observed all the bustle on 6th Street, which is essentially San Pedro’s main thoroughfare, as well as the Port’s activities and investments along the waterfront. We’ve been concentrating on that water’s edge for a while.
Finding a beachfront location in Southern California is really uncommon and special,” said Alex Valente, senior vice president of High Street.
The project team
Prior to Thanksgiving, High Street and its partner company Principal Asset Management signed a finance agreement for the Vivo on Harbor.
Other project partners include Snyder Langston in Irvine as the general contractor and Orange-based VCA Structural as the structural engineer. Tarzana-based Donald F. Dickerson Associates is the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineer, while KFA Architecture of Culver City is the architect.
The project is receiving construction financing from Dallas-based Comerica Bank.
