An image on the left reflects a rendering for Pier 58's design. An image on the left is an aerial photo of Pier 58 as it exists now mid-construction. Main similarities include the shape of the pier, the jellyfish playground structure, a main plaza area in the center, and section off space on the right for the elevated lawn. The current photo does not yet show a planned tree grove and planted grass for the lawn, as depicted in the rendering.
