Rebuilding the Folly Pier

Has anyone heard information on this? I was told from a local yesterday that the pier is going to have a major overhaul soon, as in the next year or two. New rails, new planking.

What’s the scoop on this and how long is the pier going to be down?

I read this the other day. It looks like they’re completely rebuilding it.

Hey 23. Pier down 18-24 months. New pier will have concrete pilings. Wood or hardyplank 9n top. Pier will have the same footprint as present. Conflicting answers on when this starts. This fall or next fall.
