The Berkeley Pier was built in 1926 and was 3.5 miles (5.6 km) at the time. Today it is shorter; now it is 2.5 miles (4.0 km). Since 2015, the entrance to the pier has been closed for safety concerns due to the deterrence of the iron rebar supporting the pier. Look for a sundial at the foot of the pier for Berkeley's sister city, Sakai, in Japanese.

The Berkeley Pier, when constructed in 1926, extended 3.5 miles (5.6 km) into San Francisco Bay from the end of University Avenue. Due to extensive filling of the bay and the creation of the Berkeley Marina, it presently extends only 2.5 miles (4.0 km). Only the first 3,000 feet (910 m) were maintained and open to the public. Since July 2015 the entrance to the pier is fenced off and access was forbidden due to safety concerns after severe weathering and corrosion was discovered in the concrete and iron rebar supporting the pier. A large concrete sundial at the foot of the pier comemmorates Berkeley's Japanese sister city partnership with Sakai. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Pier
