4. Entrance Plaza
The Entrance Plaza is at
the interface of the access
road and the entrance to
the Pier structure. A sign
indicates arrival to the Pier.
The entrance plaza features
a mixture of decorative
brick pavers and concrete
arranged in a circular
pattern. The paving is in
fair to poor condition. A
concrete pavement header
indicates where the entry
plaza ends and the
pavement begins. There
are two concrete headers,
perhaps the western one
(furthest from the Pier) is for
an approach slab.

There is a bus stop on the south side of the plaza which appeared to be in good
condition. The turnout to this bus stop appeared to have a tight radius inappropriate for
the buses arriving at the pier. However, most buses apparently continue to the end of
the pier and turn around there. See Photos 4 and 5.
