Deconstruction of the English Bay Barge is nearing completion. The City of Vancouver says the hull of the barge is expected to be demolished by the end of next week. "Weather permitting, the next steps will include pile removal, site cleanup and equipment removal," the city said in a statement. The barge washed up on the shore during destructive storms almost one year ago. The Park Board cheekily and unofficially renamed that part of Sunset Beach "Barge Chilling Beach" in December 2021.
