July 21st, 2010New Pier at Sylvan Beach set to re-open!
It has been roughly two years since Hurricane Ike severely damaged our pier in La Porte, but it is set to re-open tomorrow. All parts of the old pier were removed and the new structure stands higher than the old, but the same length with the T-head at the end. New lights have been installed and the new pier is also wheelchair accessible.
Hours will be as follows: Thursday, 6 a.m. to 2 a.m.; Friday, 5 a.m. to 2 a.m.; Saturday, 5 a.m. to 2 a.m.; Sunday, 5 a.m. to 10 p.m.; Monday through Wednesday, 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Pier rates for children and senior 60 and older are $2 and adults $4. Fees collected will be split between the operator and a fund that has been established for years to cover the cost of repairs and/or replacement.
