WGI worked with the City of Fort Pierce and the Florida Inland Navigation District to design and construct the Melody Lane Fishing Pier located at the end of Melody Lane in Downtown Fort Pierce. The site is close to a historic local radio station, WIRA, which began broadcasting shortly after World War II. The newly constructed pier is 10-foot wide by 170-foot long with a T-shaped terminal platform. The pier was constructed with precast piles, concrete pile caps, heavy timber framing, and open deck grating to promote seagrass growth and handrails for public safety and discourage boat mooring. The lighting of the pier was integrated into each of the pile cap columns. Musical themes were designed into the entry arch and benches located along the pier’s length.
