The Vancouver Park Board has ordered a "like-for-like" repair of the Jericho Pier, rejecting a recommendation from staff to demolish the storm-damaged structure.
The pier has been closed to the public since last January, when a storm did significant damage to the pier, the Stanley Park seawall and the Kitsilano Pool.
Staff with the Vancouver Park Board are recommending that the damaged Jericho Pier – which has been closed since 2021 be demolished instead of repaired or rebuilt.
