The city of Amersfoort in the Netherlands (nicknamed Keistad (Rocktown) has an actual rock park, the 'boulder garden'. Every so often countries donate a rock which is sent and put in their rock park. My Dad was once in charge of driving a rock that had been donated by the UK to Amersfoort.

You could make the new beach a park area and then you would be able to hook the pier to the path instead of the extra road that comes out of the parking lot. 2. I feel like your trains cause a lot of traffic jam in your industry area. Maybe a bridge or tunnel so that the trains don't block the traffic anymore.
