They succeeded in having the building designated as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (no. 146) in 1975. Beginning in 1976 the building was restored (exterior) and remodeled (interior) into the Los Angeles Maritime Museum, which opened in 1979. It is the largest maritime museum on the West Coast.[3][8] The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
Both the exterior and interior of the Municipal Ferry Building were featured in the 1947 film The Street With No Name. See also
