The partial collapse of the iconic wharf made national news. Now Santa Cruz is preparing to celebrate the good news of the wharf's full reopening while they contemplate the possibility of a full rebuild in the future.
Repairs to the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf are complete 15 months after a portion collapsed during an intense winter storm.In December 2024, a bomb cyclone fueled the massive ocean waves that struck the already-damaged south end of the wharf, ultimately leading to a 150-foot section of the pier collapsing into the ocean.
The city of Santa Cruz decided to focus on reinforcing the existing pier before ultimately deciding on whether or not to rebuild the section that collapsed.City officials say the improvements will help protect the historic structure from future storm damage while preserving its role as a popular destination for visitors.Santa Cruz lifeguards open up after saving lives in wharf collapse : 'Waves came in and got higher'Rep.
