The Boardwalk
Even with the beach officially open, a lot of may be pretty unrecognizable. After months of ongoing work, much of the boardwalk itself is still gone, with only support beams left in its place. This may make actually getting onto the beach a little tricky, but the Parks Department is wisely focusing its attentions on creating “boardwalk islands” around the main hubs at Beach 86th and Beach 95th, which it still hopes will be back to normal (and serviceable for businesses) by the beginning of the season.
