Editing Marina del Rey, California (section)

==Infrastructure==
The [[Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department]] (LASD) has a substation in Marina del Rey. Prior to 1985, maritime and land law enforcement was provided by the Los Angeles County Harbor Patrol, a division of the Department of Small Craft Harbors. The Harbor Patrol was merged into the Sheriff's Department with sworn Harbor Patrol officers becoming Deputy Sheriffs.<ref>"[http://www.lasd.org/stations/for2/mdr/index.html Marina del Rey Station] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100121132545/http://www.lasd.org/stations/for2/mdr/index.html |date=January 21, 2010 }}".

===Transportation===
The [[Marina Expressway]], California State Route 90, terminates at Lincoln Boulevard ([[California State Route 1]]) in northeastern Marina del Rey and links the area with [[Culver City, California|Culver City]]. A [[Water taxi|water shuttle service]], the WaterBus, operates on select days, typically weekends and holidays, during the summer months.

Bus shuttle services operate on the roads within the marina and between the nearby sites of [[Playa Vista, Los Angeles|Playa Vista]], and the [[Venice, Los Angeles|Venice]] Pier.

===Street layout===
[[Washington Boulevard (Los Angeles)|Washington Boulevard]] bounds the Marina to the northwest, the [[Pacific Ocean]] to the southwest, [[Ballona Creek]] to the southeast, [[Lincoln Boulevard (Los Angeles)|Lincoln Boulevard]] to the northeast, and Admiralty Way along Yvonne B. Burke Park to the north. Marina del Rey separates into two distinct regions, the harbor area and the suburban area (just outside its boundaries).

The harbor area has eight basins separated by six strips of land, each of which has at least one street on it. From the northeastern end of the Marina, going clockwise, these streets are: Bali Way, Mindanao Way (with west terminus at [[Burton Chace Park]]), Fiji Way (bordering the southeastern edge of the Marina), Bora Bora Way, Tahiti Way, Marquesas Way, Panay Way, and Palawan Way. Panay Way, Marquesas Way, Tahiti Way, and Bora Bora Way are all on the western side of the Marina and all terminate at Via Marina, which in turn terminates at Washington Boulevard. Palawan Way is also on the west side, but it terminates directly to Washington Boulevard east of Via Marina. On the east side, Bali Way ends at Lincoln Boulevard, Fiji Way ends at the Marina Freeway and Mindanao Way turns into Short Avenue in Los Angeles after crossing Alla Road. Admiralty Way lies north of the harbor and forms an arc that intersects the roads that lead to either Washington Boulevard or Lincoln Boulevard.

The suburban area (adjacent to Marina del Rey in the city of Los Angeles) bounded by Admiralty Way to the south, Washington Boulevard to the west, and Lincoln Boulevard to the east consists mostly of homes and apartments and is referred to by the real estate industry as the Golden Triangle.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.sun-sentinel.com/real-estate/la-fi-hotprop-steve-austin-marina-house-20170322-story.html |title='Stone Cold' Steve Austin buys the house next door in Marina del Rey |last=Leitereg |first=Neal |date=March 22, 2017 |website=South Florida Sun Sentinel |access-date=April 22, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://abbotkinneyfirstfridays.com/golden-triangle-architectural-gem-in-the-marina/ |title=Golden Triangle Architectural Gem in the Marina! |date= May 13, 2015 |website=Abbot Kinney First Fridays |access-date=April 22, 2021}}</ref>
