Description

Considered one of LA’s best kept secrets; Burton Chace Park is tucked away in the serene waters of Marina del Rey. Los Angeles County hired Bellingham Marine to install 44 transient slips around the park in 2013. Bellingham’s scope of work included removal and disposal of the existing dock system, manufacture and installation of the new docks and upgrades to the utility systems.

Chace Park has 44 Unifloat concrete floating slips and 700 linear feet of side-tie space. The new layout provides better integration with the non-motorized watercraft storage and launch dock installed by Bellingham in 2017.

Project overview

Burton Chace Park is a Los Angeles County park in Marina del Rey, California, surrounded on three sides by water and offering transient moorage for visiting boaters. The renovation was part-funded by a $1.3 million National Boating Infrastructure Grant, and Bellingham Marine was awarded the contract in 2013.

  • Scope: removal of the old dock system, manufacture and installation of new concrete floating docks, and upgraded water, fire suppression, power and sewer utilities.
  • 35 old slips replaced with 44 concrete floating slips, plus more than 700 linear feet of new side-tie space.
  • Dedicated transient side-tie docks of 300 ft and 138 ft, a 147 ft dock for 4-hour berthing and a water bus landing.
  • The guest docks reopened in May 2014 after eight months of construction.
