The first cruise ship to offer scheduled cruises from San Diego after the inception of the Port District — the Greek M/S Orpheus — begins making scheduled 10-day cruises to Mexico from the B Street and Broadway piers.The Broadway Pier is converted into a multi-use public maritime pier and landscaped esplanade along with a cruise ship embarkation platform at a cost of $673,000.
State bans gambling on ships that stop at more than one California port, leading to a sharp downturn in cruise ship business. Shortly thereafter, the Port abandons the proposed $96 million terminal project.The Port begins a market analysis for redeveloping the B Street Cruise Ship Terminal for commercial development and parking.Port invites prospective Lane Field developers to include a new cruise ship terminal on B Street as part of their bid.
