The safest and most cost-effective option for the Ocean Beach Pier is to keep the structure closed to public access while the city moves forward with a long-term solution to replace the pier, the city said in AugustThe city of San Diego announced over the weekend that it had finalized the preferred redesign of the Ocean Beach Pier and will hold a community workshop in the coming weeks to give the public a peek at it.
Even as far back as 2018, the outcome seemed inevitable. A study released that year determined the pier was beyond its useful life and recommended the city pursue a replacement., the city confirmed repairing the damaged Ocean Beach Pier was no longer feasible. The 58-year-old pier has been closed since it was damaged by high surf in October 2023. Further damage occurred last December when a pylon broke off and fell into the ocean.
The city says it has a plan to tear down the old one and build a new one, but it's going to be a long process. NBC 7’s Shandel Menezes has more.
