The historic San Diego Old Police Headquarters (OPH) is located at 789 W. Harbor Drive near Seaport Village and the start of Pacific Highway. OPH, a designated historic building, was built in the 1930s and served the San Diego Police Department until 1987 when the department moved to its current headquarters. The building has sat vacant for nearly 25 years. Now, thanks to a redevelopment plan from Terramar Retail Centers, managing member of Seaport Village Operating Co., LLC, the OPH could get new life in the near future.  The project provides for the restoration and adaptive reuse of the building, courtyard, and surrounding areas for restaurant, entertainment, specialty retail, and public market uses while rehabilitating its historic qualities and architectural features.  The project adds approximately one acre of public park plaza area adjacent to the OPH along Harbor Drive.

In 2009, Terramar Retail Centers (Terramar), managing member of Seaport Village Operating Co., LLC, started a portion of the construction required to complete the adaptive reuse of the OPH, which involved the demolition of certain interior walls to allow for retail uses and the cleanup of hazardous materials. In January 2012, Terramar entered into a 40-year ground lease with the Port and is currently working to obtain leasing commitments from restaurant and retail tenants with the goal of restarting construction and tenant improvement work later this year. Terramar hopes to complete construction by the end of 2013.
