Abstract
Why is it that when we come across a pier reaching out from a coast we have a desire to walk out on to it... Could it be because a pier gives us something special a place set apart, a place to view the world...
Would it not be a wonderful thing to walk on an urban pier... past the surf of buildings... to an island of gardens... in an urban sea... to view the world a few steps closer... A place to glimpse where we are and where we could be.
