The house next to him burnt to the ground, but they are rebuilding it just as close to the edge as it had been before. So they must not be that worried about the cliff.

They started rebuilding next door before all the recent water deluge & damage.

This is case of appearances being worse than reality. These homes on Birdview Ave are built into solid granite. There is/was sand an soil cascading down the hill. The sand and soil was held in place by plants which released the soil/sand below once they burned in the fires. What remains is the solid granite. I'm sure a massive cantilivered deck will be built or possibly patios carved into the granite. One other option is to simply move the home farther from the cliff. Sounds insane, but with homes around here easily $5-20M, the few thousand it would cost to move the home, it's money well spent.

The lot looks large. Worst cast if the erosion continues couldn’t he just knock the existing structure down and build something new set back 50 ft?

There's not much left to erode. That's a solid granite cliff with a public road and public beach below it. The dirt and plants previously covering the granite cliff-side will eventually return. No land was lost. The bare earth was formerly covered with just vegetation. As you can see from a photo before the fires, very little has even changed. Erosion is wreaking havoc on California and some of the east coast, but not here, this was fire.

The stairs didn't erode, they were wooden stairs built into the cliff-side. They burned.

by Anonymousreply 45March 9, 2019 1:27 AM

There were clearly several stairs at one time - going down from each house. Now they're stranded on top of the cliff.

Google Streets view from the public road below. The neighbor on the right's stairs burned down as did most of the greenery. These stairs will be rebuilt in time for Memorial Day. Not all of these houses ever had stairs to the beach.

There's a TON more cliff @ R51.

by Anonymousreply 52March 9, 2019 1:49 AM

There ain't more cliff in r51, it's just covered in growth. If you look at the backyard fences in the before and after shots, you can see them meander around where all this 'erosion' took place. No one lost any of their backyard. The only thing lost was the growth on the side of the cliff and some wooden stairs. And a lot of the beauty for now.

That doesn't look like "granite" to me, more like seabed material or chalk. You can see all the neighboring properties all have sheared off cliff faces too with lots of rubble building up below. it looks like erosion on this timescale is common there. Concrete doesn't really stand up well to the ocean environment in the long run, reinforced or not. So scary in an earthquake. As pretty as it is I would never want to stay there.
