DSC_5528

            about 7 years ago I rushed out to the beach from Phoenix to get some Pier photos.

About the pier: The Ellen Browning Scripps Memorial Pier is an icon of UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography and a vital research facility that houses numerous environmental monitoring stations and enables small boat and scientific diving operations. 

The modern Scripps Pier was built in 1988, replacing the original pier built-in 1916 with funds provided by its namesake patron, and is considered one of the world's largest research piers. Data on ocean conditions and plankton taken from the pier provide an unparalleled source of information on changes in the coastal Pacific Ocean. 

The patronage of the Scripps family continues into the modern-day. Most recently family members supported the refurbishment of the pier’s railings along with the construction of an adjacent laboratory.
