It's lovely as it is, now that it's been repaired. Slowly, over time, the rest of the pier will be reinforced as the new section is. Do that as planned.

I have greatly miss not being able to use the EAst Beach promenade. I hope that the new surface will be left smooth and easy for people to walk on rather than the bricks which move slightly over time.

Breakwater failure caused this damage. Immediate upgrade must occur to prevent another catastrophe like this. Oh and what about the marina rebuild?
