San Francisco Aquatic Park Pier, also known as Municipal Pier or Muni Pier, is a historic landmark in San Francisco, California, originally completed in 1933 to provide a safe recreational space for residents to swim and enjoy the bay. However, due to decades of exposure to harsh weather conditions and seismic activity, the 1400-foot pier has deteriorated and was permanently closed in 2022 following structural damage sustained during an earthquake.
Despite its closure to pedestrians, the pier continues to serve a vital role as a tidal energy dampener and a significant feature of the Aquatic Park National Historic Landmark District. The National Park Service is actively monitoring the pier's condition and planning for its eventual replacement to preserve the historical significance of the area.
