Thanks for sharing all the photos. Saw a video on fb, time’s square is gone, as is Junkanoo, and the pier severely damaged (concrete pylons remain). My stomach turns at the damage from Ian.

Just b4 the video cut off, I was watching the Naples pier, and the water was almost over the deck. Concrete pier decks almost always get displaced when the water/waves get high. After Opal in 1995, the Pensacola Beach pier was rebuilt using wooden planking that was designed to give way for waves, and leave the structure and pilings intact. It survived Ivan and Dennis without major damage.
