A visit to the Phase One construction site late this afternoon revealed that  much of the boardwalk  excavation work  is completed. The trench that had been dug received the wooden infrastructure and was covered over with sand.  The top picture taken around the middle of the middle project shows the vertical wood piles that are being placed east of the metal bulkhead.

The second photograph is taken near the Boardwalk Pavilion where you can see what is going beneath the sand, because that part has yet to be covered over. Note how these elements tie together and will tie into the boardwalk itself.

If any of you can discuss the engineering of this project, please do so and explain these images.—–Paul Goldfinger , Editor @Blogfinger
