Nelson Pier

The Hall Street Pier, sometimes referred to as the Nelson Pier, is a lake pier on the West Arm of Kootenay Lake in Nelson, British Columbia, Canada. It was officially opened to the public on September 14, 2024. The pier was designed by Matthew Stanley as a community gathering site that symbolizes the connection between the city and the lake. The pier includes a canopy, swimming area, recreational dock, and a large walking area. The canopy has a hybrid wood- and- steel design, and is intended to produce moiré lighting. The pier originally included the Ladybird speedboat, but it was removed in August 2024 due to temperature-control issues in the speedboat's shelter. The Ladybird, powered by a Liberty V-12 aircraft engine, won the 20-mile race of the Kootenay Lake Regatta 8 times.
