The new sand pumped on to the Stone Harbor beaches is in good shape- even after the quick moving Nor’easter last Tuesday.
In Avalon, the project is set to resume by early next week, adding new sand from 32nd Street and north to 9th Street.
Pictured below: 17th Street in Avalon looking north (on a sunny day last week) ; and 111th Street looking south (today in the rain):
As of this morning, new sand is being pumped on to Nuns’ Beach (111th through 113th Streets).
The dredging company is working around the clock, and will continue to move north along the Stone Harbor beach.
Fascinating to watch the process from one of the nearby beach paths!

I’ve always enjoyed walking- especially along the beach (year round).
Since my back surgery in December, walking is now classified as “Doctor’s orders”!
Thankfully, I live and work in a very walkable community. Â I can choose between beach, boardwalk, downtown, or bay side locations…and stalk real estate at the same time 😉
Oh, and did I mention the views?

Check out the engineering tripod on the beach at 32nd Street!
And you may notice the vibration monitors (pictured below) placed in the dunes. Â This technology addresses any concerns of potential structural damage of nearby homes from the movement of sand/heavy equipment.
Science at the beach!
The equipment is starting to arrive at the south end of Stone Harbor for the initial phase of the island beach fill project.
Once started, the project is expected run 24/7 and then head north to Avalon.

I will also post updates/pictures in the coming weeks!
Stone Harbor property owners received a letter from VITAL Communications in the fall detailing the upcoming Borough wide revaluation.
Representatives from the company will be inspecting properties starting this winter and through the early summer (based on permission for access).
It’s in the owner’s best interest to allow the Vital Communications rep through the home so that accurate data can be posted.
Once the revaluation is complete, the data will be processed by the Borough Tax Assessor’s office for the 2018/2019 tax year.
More information will be posted on the Borough of Stone Harbor’s web site
