My previous home town, 30 years, better known as Pacifica, California, 12 miles south of San Francisco on the San Mateo county coast line. It is also known affectionately as " P-Town" by locals for the fact that the town has it's "issues" and steps on it's own feet constantly. The beauty is pretty dynamic for a cool weather, central California town of 44,000 and the problems with this Esplanade has nothing to do with riding seas, global climate change, nor El Nin~o rain years, maybe every 5-7 years. It does however have everything to do with a San Andreas fault line running directly underneath it and offshore, the geological makeup of the compressed sand beach cliffs, the lack of rocky topsoil, and the boondoggle of letting any contractor build any structures within a quarter mile of these sandstone cliffs. That get soggy with winter rains, wind erosion, sand dredging along the coastline ( causing higher high tides, bay dredging, harbor dredging) and lack of common sense. Meanwhile, enjoy the view of the small city that lost it's way...I used to fish for striped bass along these shores....

Natural sources of beach sand, including rivers and eroding cliffs, have been suppressed by human-built dams and protective coverings. Vitousek served as lead author of a March 2017 modeling analysis from the U.S. Geological Survey that concluded if no measures are taken, up to 67 percent of California's beaches could be completely eroded back to sea cliffs or coastal infrastructure by 2100. Add climate change , sea level has risen by about 8 inches (20 centimeters) since 1900, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and could rise 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters) higher by the end of this century

[@DieFlabbergast]

So is sand deposition. In many places, the sea is retreating as the beaches grow and eventually become solid land. There are many towns that used to be ports but are now two or three miles inland.

What is the name of the tree with a spreading crown in the upper right corner at 2: 42 and at 4: 35? Please tell me.

[@FlyinCameras]

I think it's called a fuckelberrybush =)

[@auaiao9]

I wouldn't expect to see businesses on the bluff, only expensive houses.

[@roddaman7545]

Cheap apartments is more like it. The expensive houses are farther inland here.

[@auaiao9]

I'm surprised since there's an ocean view.

[@MrChassmith]

smart buyers know mansions in this area are uninsurable...so the land goes to a lesser use...like a parking lot for RVs

[@CTjacob13]

House at 2:24 sold for $985,000 in 2014. I don't think it's inhabitable anymore. It's still standing however.

where I come from we put the sand pile next to the house we're building , rather than putting the house on top of the sand pile....🤤

We are, Vincent. We laugh because people (like the other commenter) Just Can't Follow Orders and LIVE by their ARROGANT STUPIDITY. ✌️ Blessings 💖 thank you for knowing.

How and when did the water ever get up that high?

[@AnDroN_Don_Don]

Такое чувство, что там давали землю так "Хочешь бери и строй тут,всё что произойдёт, это твои проблемы"

[@veraschink40]

Интересно, куда все смотрели, когда там все строили? Или ничего не предвещало? Да и в России на черном море тоже самое, подмывает дома страшно. Все хотят у самого синего моря.....

Location please, i see a lot of storage lots that are crumbling

[@fredlew781]

Love your work.

[@cbcluckyii4042]

Not sure how house insurance works but if it did cover some damages related to erosion you would think that would have an impact on rates for the city itself to recover some of its losses.

[@jennybaker4452]

Whoever builds houses on the top of a mountain then that’s to be expected

[@earlem9771]

He who built he house on the sand...

[@STHFGDBY]

I don't know the time period of this erosion but my guess is that at least 30 feet of land has been reclaimed by the sea. Probably over a 20 year period. Does anyone have the real facts on this ?

[@melissasueh.]

Pacifica is where the San Andreas Fault dips into the ocean to cross the Golden Gate. It runs from here to Drakes Bay, across the outlet for San Francisco Bay and all the inland California rivers. The area is really unstable and eventually San Francisco will be entirely gone into the ocean.

[@1950Chimaera]

And Gov Pelosi will say, "You have to build the house to find out if it will collapse".

[@rs6383]

Karma mother nature, let's see you shake the shit out of it & watch it slide in.

[@StefanTonioSampson]

I dont know anything about architecture or development- but...why did they even start such extensive building on such obviously sandy soil....?

Are the local authorities planning to ta0ke safety measures? Many thanks for sharing. 👍 ✌

[@masterspin7796]

Would be interesting to see the difference 5 years later...
