The Parks & Beaches board hears that some 'investigative demolition' may be needed and that additional repairs likely would be made to the stairs leading to the beach
In hopes of extending the life of La Jolla’s Children’s Pool as it nears its centennial anniversary, a La Jolla-based engineering firm that has been studying the local landmark with funding from the La Jolla Parks & Beaches board estimated that repairs to the area’s seawall alone would cost $2.3 million, not including repairs to the stairs or surrounding retaining walls.
Additional Children’s Pool features include the top and face of the coastal sandstone bluff that anchors the stairways; a sandstone reef that anchors the foundations of the breakwater; a small, shallow dredged marine pool between the bluffs and reef; and a sandy man-made beach.The concrete surface of the seawall walkway at the Children’s Pool in La Jolla, pictured in November 2019, has been wearing out and becoming textured.
Additional repairs likely would be made to the stairs leading to the beach, including filling in some caverns under the pedestrian walkways.
