Description
Recent powerful waves brought down portions of the sea wall at the Children's Pool in La Jolla. We alerted the City of San Diego and now crews were seen inspecting the damage.
The Sierra Club Seal Society said because we made them aware of the seawall repairs that are needed, they are going to contact the city and ask them to hold off on any work until after the seal pupping season is over.
The damage was caused by last week's king tides. Local photographers sent incredible images of the roaring waves crashing over the sea wall via the CBS 8 app using the Near Me feature. In some of the images, you can see the railing is still there, but Chopper 8 aerials on Thursday showed the railing was gone.
CBS 8 reported the damage Wednesday when we saw it posted to the city’s Get It Done app.
The city sent CBS 8 the following statement:
Staff from the Parks and Recreation Department examined the Children's Pool seawall and discovered a section of the railing to be missing. Preparation for repairs is now underway, but it is not yet known when they will be completed.
Thursday, city crews were out on the seawall taking a closer look at the damage.
