Its nicknames are the "Endless Pier" and "HorseshoePier" and is moderately popular with both tourists and fishermen. However, the pier'slength is possible only because of its unusual shape (it does not go straight out to sea, butgoes out diagonally and then returns back to shore). The Redondo Beach Pier started as areinforced concrete structure in 1914, then was replaced in 1928 with a timber pier. In1988, the pier was severely battered by storms and later that year burned to the waterline(the fire was so large that a SigAlert was announced for the San Diego Freeway severalmiles away). The pier's modern reinforced concrete version was completed in 1996.
