      i am happy to see an other pwrson doing research into this old world structure. i am convinced that the lower part of hotel and that " gazebo " structure are all connected. if you look carefully from directly above, you'll see that the angles and style of both are in line. i think this was 100's of years old and was flooded by mud. then found and reconstructed above ground. st that time , the waterside gazebo was still buried. this has just been exposed to view in the last 25 years. i also think the 3 rocks anomoly is a pier foundation. it all lines up with the buildings on land. im sure sea level was lower then and cali was an island. 1400s maps show this.

      ​@@KevinFreist you've clearly not ever had to underpin or stabilise a property foundation.🤦‍♂️A lady in comments even linked this ua-cam.com/video/TtafNSYrkyQ/v-deo.html re its construction. Note, one odd rusty steel appears to be a test driven pier the rest are auger bored holes backfilled with concrete, the video you just watched clearly shows 1/2 inch reo hanging out of the raggy >un-even< cast beams and broken ends post deconstruction work as per the link. This is exactly how we would tie the tops of these under pins together. The auger often twists off line and bellies out slightly also evident in this vid. It's all set out to a pattern but it is not precision construction! The original head land probably extended some ways out and it's not remote-middle of nowhere either, the owners have invested interests to retain expensive beach front and very fragile sandy headlands from eroding away. This latticed pattern work more than likely extends some way back toward the hotel. Perhaps get out and actually observe how new concrete ages quickly or how fast harbour side thick steel piers actually rust away in mere decades. Urban abandoned explorers chans might tweak your interests more than a guy who prospects from the inside of his computer cubicle. 😂

    Back in the 70's they were going to build a motel on the beach and they poured footings for the structure but the motel was never built as the economy went south and the funding dried up for the venture.

      "The foundation was initially constructed in the 1970’s in the anticipation of
      the hotel construction. Subsequent litigation resulted in the relocation of the hotel building footprint
      to the current site. The scope of work for the emergency phase of this project includes demolition and
      removal of the exposed and concrete structures, as well as refurbishing the existing golf course and
      paths to their current state. Demolition work on the beach at the base of the bluff requires the
      issuance of a Coastal Development Permit issued directly from the California Coastal Commission."

    I grew up in that area. The Ritz was going to build on the coast so guests could get the feel of the ocean close up. But they had to scrap those plans and build farther back away from the edge. Engineers warned it could fall into the ocean. It’s just remnants of a foundation laid in the early construction of the hotel that was later revised out of the plans. Since then the foundations have been exposed by coastal erosion.

    Actually, the sand can be there while it gets built. It is called a caisson. You take a drill, and drill a cylindrical hole into the ground until you hit solid bedrock, if possible. There are even bits where you can create "bells" or wider bases at the bottom so you can spread the force of the structure over a wider surface area of the bedrock. You then insert your rebar and then pour concrete into the cavity you created. Now you have structure. This is quite common in areas such as this where the soil conditions are sandy and/or poor for supporting structures. Is there an island off shore? This was most definitely a bridge or pier of some sort and it looks like it is going straight out into the ocean.

I was a contractor for years, concrete can hold water for decades upon decades... maybe even concrete can hold water without having issues for one milion years. As a contractor with experience on mega project (runways highways massive building foundations etc) I can tell you confidentally it would be easier, cheaper, and faster to built a 60 foot tall retaining wall than digging out 60 foot deep holes and filling them with welded steel tubes, and filling the tubes with concrete

Same as you would not be fencing any property you don't own and 'that shit looks' old because it probably is at least twenty years older than you. It's just basic underpinning now in need of expensive maintenance, with insurance and public liabilities premiums, probably the reason for the rumoured access 'restrictions' and pending if any rectification, it's simply a cheap safe interim option.

    When the main structure was originally built it would have been a long way from the beach, the concrete columns may have had loose vertical timber shuttering,, mainly to prevent scouring when the concrete was poured, the stump end would have been the bottom of the poured concrete

  • @paulliebenberg3410

    No big mystery, in Google Earth one can use the historical imagery to see that before the hotel was built there was no cliffside structure. It shows up (and extending further out) not long after the hotel was being built. Wikipedia mentions that it was part of the original 1998 foundation construction but it was soon discovered that the cliffs were too risky to build on so the footings were abandoned. A storm in 2014 exposed most of the outer columns which have since fallen and been removed from the beach.

    The shoreline was obviously much further out then it is now. Those concrete piers have strange markings on them, like shovel scrapes into the piers. If those piers were drilled, you would see some marks in the pier that transferred from sides of hole. It seems they dug them by hand, possibly. There must be some record of that building being there. It was a big multi storied building, post 1900. Just a guess. Peace!

    Looks to me like it was once the steel columns and footers of a foundation. Maybe to a building or steps to the beach.
    But obviously, whatever was there, was blown or washed away. The beach could be very different even 50 years ago.
    The concrete columns look as if they were made to have a 'tree bark,' look on them.
    Perhaps, there was a large deck that extended off land at that point.
    Maybe an old house was once there and what you see, has nothing to do with the hotel above the beach now.
