The license allows CYC to use the site while the club and County work toward a lease amendment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The agreement came together quickly, minimizing the time the building was vacant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTony P\u2019s was a cherished part of our Marina del Rey (MdR) community for decades, providing a vibrant space beloved by residents. I\u2019m glad we\u2019re keeping that energy alive with this significant step with California Yacht Club towards bringing a new restaurant to this space,\u201d said Los Angeles County Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell, whose district includes Marina del Rey. \u201cThis important step builds on our commitment to investing in the MdR community for all residents to enjoy, while honoring the local institutions that make MdR so special.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tony P\u2019s, a fixture for decades in the Marina, closed in July when its owners retired, and the County resumed control of the property. The building is adjacent to the former CYC clubhouse, which was seriously damaged during a fire in December 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe received multiple formal proposals for the Tony P\u2019s site, but CYC\u2019s plan for a sea-to-table restaurant and gathering space stood out,\u201d said Gary Jones, DBH Director. \u201cWe\u2019re hoping to see a place where people can celebrate milestones or meet friends for a bite. We\u2019re excited for what\u2019s ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving forward, the building will be reimagined to reflect its evolving role in the Marina\u2019s landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen MdR was first developed, CYC catalyzed interest in maritime tradition and aquatic activities for Los Angeles,\u201d CYC co-owner and president Jeff Weiss said. \u201cAs the Marina enters the next phase of its evolution, CYC is as excited and as committed as ever to connecting Angelenos to experiences on the water.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project is currently in the design phase, with an eye toward opening in Spring 2026. In the meantime, bar service will be available for CYC members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MARINA DEL REY,&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14920"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14921,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920\/revisions\/14921"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacyf.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
