Peck Park is managed by the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. Facilities at the park include a swimming pool, a baseball diamond, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, extensive hiking trails, and a child care center. In 1997 the Peck Park gymnasium was designed by Koning Eizenberg Architecture, Inc. The park is the largest of four in San Pedro named for notable land owner and developer George H.
