The “spiral pool” at the foot of Pier 2 is getting a floor. This pool is apparently intended as a launching place for kayaks or canoes.
Addendum: Thanks to reader AEB for alerting me to some nice photos on Brownstoner made by someone who was on the Park grounds.
Brownstoner also has some nice shots of the progress.
Copycat.
This is great! I can’t wait to use it!
Copycat? The Where, you didn’t really say that, did you? Not at the risk of copyright infringement suits from The What, the banned and The Who? Man, you’re truly a risk taker.
Nice job Claude, as always. This is progressing nicely. All this time, I thought the Where was the What.
…or The Why….
The Who: Thanks. Could you teach me the chords to “Baba O’Reilly”?
Anybody catch the views from the new pier 1 park in the John Mayer segment on Nightline tonight?
