Capitola Wharf survives mother nature's first big test since reopening
Briefly

The Capitola Wharf's recent reopening faced its first significant test from ocean swells, where despite some minor damages, the structural integrity proved largely effective.
Kahn emphasized that the design of the wharf, with its mix of fastened and nailed boards, is intentional to allow for stress relief during intense wave action.
Following an atmospheric event that heavily damaged the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, Capitola's director of public works expressed satisfaction with how the wharf weathered the incident.
Capitola's wharf underwent a major renovation costing $10.6 million, focused on enhancing its resilience against natural forces, enabling it to withstand challenges from the ocean.
