WELCOME

WILMINGTON: H E A R T O F T H E Wilmington has over 20 churches and is home to one of only two community colleges located in the South Bay and Harbor Areas, which is Los Angeles Harbor College. It is also the home to nine cultural monuments, the two most widely recognized are the Banning Residence Museum and the Drum Barracks, which draw visitors from around the world and all nine monuments, are located within a one mile radius.

Wilmington is home to the 9-hole “Harbor Park” course at the Harbor Park Golf Course facility which features 3,200 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 37.

The course rating is 35.2 and it has a slope rating of 115. Designed by William F. Bell, ASGCA, the Harbor Park golf course opened in 1957. This is a beautiful tree-lined course right next to Harbor College and offers easy access from the 110 Harbor Freeway.

Wilmington is located at the center of the Port of Los Angeles, which handles more containers than any other port in the United States in terms of cargo volume and value. The port supports more than 830,000 regional jobs and 35 billion dollars in annual wages and tax revenues.

Through the Clean Air Action Plan the Port has significantly reduced emissions.

The Ports’ 2015 Air Quality Report Card demonstrates reduced Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) by 72%, Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) by 51% and Oxides of Sulfur (Sox) by 97% when comparing these emissions to 2005 levels.

HISTORY

The town of Wilmington, a site of commerce and industry, reflects the nature of its founder and early resident, Phineas Banning. Remembered as the “Father of the Los Angeles Harbor,” Phineas Banning was a family man, an entrepreneur, a Brigadier General and a State Senator.

He founded the town of New San Pedro on September 25, 1858 and changed its name to Wilmington in 1863, after his hometown in Delaware. Wilmington’s early development and growth was due to a combination of factors.

It was geographically advantageous, located six miles closer to Los Angeles than old San Pedro, and possessed a protected inner channel and lagoon.

Camp Drum was established in 1861, and Drum Barracks was built in 1862-63. In 1909, Wilmington and San Pedro were annexed by the City of Los Angeles to provide the growing metropolis with the necessary link to the harbor.

Banning Wrigley Historic District

The Banning Wrigley HOPZ can be found directly south of the historic Banning Residence Museum and Banning Park, encompassing three blocks and 80 homes established in July 2001. The neighborhood is an urban Eden in the heart of Wilmington, celebrated for its gracious homes and gardens for more than 80 years.

The Banning Wrigley HOPZ was originally part of the estate of General Phineas Banning, “The Father of the Harbor.” In 1927, William Wrigley Jr. (of chewing gum fame) developed the area as the “Original Court of Nations” as a group of distinctive homes that represented architecture from around the world.

options, from preschool to adult learning and specialized certification programs. What isn’t immediately apparent is the level of dedication and passion for educating offered at each one of these institutions.

Wilmington is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). The District is made of a total of eight Local Districts; Wilmington representing the Eighth District. The public school system in Wilmington is comprised of the following institutions, Broad Avenue Elementary, Fries Avenue Elementary, Gulf Avenue Elementary, Hawaiian Avenue Elementary, Wilmington Park Elementary, George De LaTorre Jr. Elementary and the newest edition, Harry Bridges Span School.

Beyond elementary, Wilmington offers its very own Wilmington Middle School and Banning High School. Banning High School is unlike any other high school around, as within its facility, you will find the International Trade Academy. This offers the students a variety of specialized learning in a smaller classroom setting, with current active professionals involved in their learning. Also available on the Banning High campus is the Banning Adult School for those needing to complete high school credits, wanting to learn English and so much more.

If teaching is your passion, consider attending Harbor Teacher Preparation Academy at Harbor College. Students are offered the unique opportunity to complete High School with a focus on becoming teachers

Along with all the public schools, Wilmington also offers four excellent private schools from which to choose. They include Harbor Christian School, St. Peter and Paul School and Wilmington Christian School. All of these institutions offer a range of quality educational opportunities, from preschool through twelfth grade.

DOING BUSINESS

IN WILMINGTON

Wilmington has been an industrial town since its founding in 1857, its rich history intertwined with the development and growth of San Pedro Bay, now the nation’s largest global seaport complex. From the 1869 opening of the first Southern California railroad from Banning’s Landing to Los Angeles, the Wilmington waterfront and its businesses have served the local and trans-Pacific import/export trade.

Over the past 150 years, Wilmington businesses have diversified or evolved to meet the needs of changing, emerging and growing markets employing thousands of local residents in port and infrastructure development, commercial fishing and canneries, boat and shipbuilding, oil recovery and refining, commercial services, manufacturing and the movement of cargo.

Today much of Wilmington’s waterfront

is dedicated to the export of goods processed in Wilmington — refined petroleum products, borates used in plastics, rubber, glass and detergents from Rio Tinto Minerals, seafood from State Fish, sporting goods manufactured by American Soccer Company, scrap paper, plastic, glass and aluminum from Potential Industries, and scrap vehicles from the Wilmington Auto Rebuilders, Ecology Auto, Wilmington Recyclers and Pick Your Part Auto Recycling, shredded and exported by SA Recycling, some of which

comes back as new household appliances, electronics, auto parts and the containers that carry them.

In the East Basin, Vopak imports and exports liquid and dry bulk commodities and Pasha Stevedoring & Terminals imports heavy construction materials and equipment, rolled newsprint and oversized cargo.

Wallenius Wilhemsen Logistics, the largest shipper of autos in the world, employs nearly 200 full-time local union workers who install accessories and customize autos to meet

The West Basin terminals, TraPac, Yang Ming and China Shipping import and export containerized consumer and commercial goods from a multitude of foreign and American-owned industries worldwide.

Historically a union town, Wilmington is home to many union locals — ILWU, merchant marines, electricians, iron workers, machinists, pile drivers and carpenters and host to the biggest Labor Day parade on the

West Coast. Wilmington’s waterfront businesses provide local jobs for thousands of union workers.

As the gateway and transportation corridor to the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, Wilmington is bordered by two major freeways and the Alameda Corridor railway that links the ports to the transcontinental rail yards near downtown LA. With 50% of the goods that pass through these seaports destined east of the Rockies, the 2-mile-long

cargo trains assembled by Pacific Harbor Line and hauled on the corridor by Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacific Railroad accounts for about 30% of it.

More than 12,000 local truck owneroperators service the ports. Most Wilmington trucking companies contract these truckers to haul cargo from port terminals to regional distribution centers and rail yards. Some offer additional services such as Fast Lane Transportation that sells and stores cargo containers and California Cartage that provides customs-bonded warehousing and distribution. A multitude of Wilmington businesses such as Central

Truck & Oil and Wilmington Truck Stop provide fuel, weigh scales, maintenance services and truck parking facilities.

Wilmington is situated in the midst of the nation’s third largest oil reserve and bordered by three major refineries, Phillips 66, Tesoro and Valero that primarily serve the Southern California region. Sulfur by-products are further processed for agricultural and feedstock uses by California Sulphur and H.J. Baker & Bros.

Through the consolidation of oil extraction operations, oil wells and storage tanks that once covered much of the 232-acre Wilmington Industrial Park have been removed. In 1974, the Los Angeles Community Redevelopment Agency invested $10 million in infrastructure improvements transforming it into industrial headquarters of more than 75 businesses that includes a diverse mix of manufacturing and portrelated industrial use.

Juanita’s Foods manufactures and distributes Mexican foods throughout the US, Canada and Mexico. Komax Systems designs and manufactures industrial mixing equipment and systems engineering for water treatment and power generation installations worldwide.

Banning’s Landing Community Center

Professional Services

Wilmington offers a diverse mix of products and services in the industrial, shipping engineering and logistics fields, as well as a variety of other business segments.

Professional men and women are drawn to the community for many reasons, not the least of which is the potential of working just a few minutes away from home. The labor pool is strong here, too. It is not difficult to find high-quality support staff for just about any business and there are plenty of support facilities available.

Wilmington’s professionals often do business with their friends and neighbors on a daily basis. This gives local businesses and professionals that personal touch, all too often disappearing from modern life.

It also keeps the business dollars within the community, which, in turn, makes the community even more vibrant.

Of course, a solid Chamber of Commerce always stands ready to offer its support in all professional and business endeavors. The community offers a wide range of innovative businesses and services to help improve both the quality of life and the quality of doing business in the area.

100 E. Water Street, Wilmington

Phineas Banning was a visionary with tremendous energy and love for Southern California, whose imprint on the community of Wilmington is still visible today. It could be said that the remarkable growth of this region started literally at Banning’s Landing over 150 years ago.

Banning Residence Museum 401 East “M” Street (at Pacific Coast Highway and Avalon Blvd.), Wilmington

Nestled near the Banning/Wrigley Historic Preservation Zone in Wilmington and just a few miles from the Port of Los Angeles, the beautiful Banning Museum is one of California’s historic gems. Built in 1864 by General Phineas Banning , the “Father of the Los Angeles Harbor,” the Banning residence is widely considered one of the finest

examples of Greek Revival architecture in Southern California. 2014 marked the 150th Anniversary of the Banning Mansion. In 2013, the residence underwent major restoration efforts to repair and paint the grand ‘ole place in time for its milestone anniversary of 150 years. Today, the Banning is completely restored and stands sturdy and tall once again to welcome all who visit to share in the history and splendor of a time gone by.

Drum Barracks Civil War Museum 1052 Banning Blvd. (south of East “M” Street) Wilmington

The historic Drum Barracks is the only Civil War-era U.S. Army building still standing in Southern California. The 16-room structure once stood among 19 similar buildings on 60 acres of land donated to the U.S. Army by General Phineas Banning and B.D. Wilson.

Named after Adjutant-General Richard C. Drum, commander of the post, the Drum Barracks served as the main training, staging and supply depot for military operations in Arizona, Southern California and New Mexico. The museum features many

items from this era, including an operable Gatling Gun.

Located in the original junior officers’ quarters, the museum displays historical artifacts and is operated by the City of Los Angeles. For information, call 310-548-7509; $5 donation per person, $1 for children under 12.

Drum Barracks Powder Magazine 1001 Eubank Ave, Wilmington

Part of the 30-acre Camp Drum (a Civil War-era Union Army facility), the powder magazine housed weapons and gun powder for the soldiers. Located just a few blocks from the Drum Barracks Civil War Museum, it was constructed in 1862 with three-foot thick stone block walls. During the 1920s, a wood frame house was built around the stone building and it was hidden for about 60 years. The structure was moved in the 1980s revealing this historic relic from the Civil War days. Today it sits on a fenced-in vacant lot.

St. John’s Episcopal Church 1547 Neptune Avenue, Wilmington

Mary Hollister Banning (Phineas Banning’s second wife) began holding Episcopal services in the basement of the Banning Mansion in 1876 and subsequently championed the building of a stave-type church. Construction began in 1882 and St. John’s Episcopal Church was finished in 1883. Originally located at 422 N. Avalon Boulevard, the church was moved to its present site in 1943 and still holds Sunday services.

The Banning family donated the altar and the bell, which came from one of Phineas Banning’s channel boats, the S.S. Amelia.

In 1926, the church received the altar cross

and altar rail as gifts from a US Navy chaplain. The cross and rail were made in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii from brass taken from a World War I German submarine.

Wilmington Cemetery 605 East “O” Street, Wilmington

Phineas Banning donated land for the site and constructed the cemetery in 1857 upon the death of his infant child. Banning was originally buried in the cemetery but was later moved to Rosdale Cemetery in Los Angeles. Also interred at the cemetery are Banning’s first wife, Rebbeca Sanford Banning, as well as various family members and numerous Civil War veterans and Drum Barracks soldiers.

Banning Wrigley Historic District

The Banning Park Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) can be found directly south of the historic Banning Residence and Banning Park, including both sides of Lame Avenue, Banning Boulevard and Cary Avenue from M Street to L Street to the south.

The Banning Wrigley neighborhood was mainly built in 1927 with a few houses constructed as late as the 1950s. General Banning, a native of Wilmington, Delaware, came to Southern California in 1851 where he quickly established himself as a respected businessman in the fledgling transportation industry growing around the Los Angeles Harbor. Banning owned interests in several ocean-going vessels, railroads, and stagecoaches and the quality of doing business in the area.

Local Restaurants
