An iconic SoCal pier could disappear forever unless the city forks over tens of millions of dollars to replace the landmark after an engineering report found it was in “poor to serious condition. ” Built in 1965, Hermosa Beach Pier faces an uncertain future with officials weighing costly repairs, full replacement or possible demolition. Leaders in Hermosa Beach must decide to either maintain it for $200 million plus, to repair it for $45 million and up — or completely demolish it.
