New plan for using Piers 30-32 for team bases

Piers 30-32 Renovation Idea - room for 5 America's Cup team bases

Someone has finally come up with a Plan B for Piers 30-32!

Here’s a diagram showing five team bases on Piers 30-32 for the America’s Cup in San Francisco in 2013. These piers would be a much better location for the fans and media than Pier 80 – much closer to the AC Village at Piers 27-29.

Estimated cost? $7-8 million. Much lower than a full restoration of the piers, and a lot better idea than letting them crumble into the Bay!

What do you think of this plan?  Members of the media – wouldn’t this make it easier to do interviews?  If you know the area, please add your comments – what’s good / bad about this idea?
