SANDWICH The Sandwich Boardwalk is a major tourist attraction, but plans are in play to replace the iconic structure despite opposition from local advocacy groups.
In an effort to garner feedback from the public, the Sandwich Board of Selectmen held a virtual workshop Thursday evening on the proposed boardwalk plans.
“The biggest issue is climate change and resiliency,” said Wendell Kaslow, an architect who specializes in historic structures who was asked by the town to oversee the project design.
The new boardwalk would look vastly different, with a higher elevation, but Kaslow said the necessary changes to the structure are practical more than cosmetic.
