Garden City Beach Update! Good & Bad News! Kingfisher Inn Closed--Structural Issues!

UPDATE 4/3/24--Kingfisher Inn To Stay Closed All Summer For Repairs, and Maybe Longer!
It's Spring 2024! Time for a Garden City Beach Update! Unfortunately, Kingfisher Inn, which is right next to the Garden City Pier, suddenly closed 3/28/24 and evacuated its guest because of possible structural issues. Not good news.
So, is Garden City Beach ready for summer? Are the rumors true that $46 million is going to be invested in its downtown? How's the beach looking? Is Conch Cafe open yet? How about the pier? Watch to find out!

    That Condo collapse in Miami three years ago was certainly a wake-up call. Ever since, the Grand Strand and other areas have been carefully performing building inspections. I heard on the news today that a complex in Surfside Beach called Sandfiddler closed due to structural concerns just like the Kingfisher Inn. It is now the fourth Grand Strand condo complex that has closed since the tragedy that unfolded in Miami in 2021. It's sad that something like that has to happen in order for things like this to be taken seriously. These buildings are being closed so that something like that does not happen again.

    You are 100% correct. At least they are learning from their mistakes. I recently read that the owners of Kingfisher Inn are trying to decide if they should repair it or just tear it down. It's a shame for the unit owners that were looking forward to spending time there this summer, but better safe than sorry as they say. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment with information. Cheers!

    Sounds like a big upgrade happening? The Inn structural issue caused by the build of the pier? Or somehow connected to the delay of the pier? Hmmm...something fishy happening in those waters. Lovely area all the same and a financial injection and effort will crick it up a notch on the place to be I'd say. Thanks for the update. Enjoy the sunshine. Greetings from New Zealand. 😎🙋‍♀🇳🇿🥝

    Hi Anita! The building in the video is actually next to a pier that's one town over from the town that has the concrete Pier, so not related. It seems ever since we had that condo collapse in Florida a few years ago, buildings are going under closer inspection and they found that in this building the building seems to be slipping off of its foundation, increasing its risk for collapse. Hey, thanks for watching. Hope you're having a great day and that you have a great upcoming week. See you around!

    This is probably not true but i was told by a local that the fish from Myrtle Beach swim to Garden City to make their bowel movements which is why the ph in t he water is high in fungi etc? Also what is the plan for the 42 million?

    Never heard that one! As far as the renovation of Garden City Beach, it's been pushed off to 2025 and the money is going to be used to improve the streets, sidewalks, vegetation, and the flooding issue. We will do a follow up story when it gets started next year! Thanks for watching and for asking a question. Oh, and if you are wondering about the Kingfisher Inn, it is still closed, and the owners are trying to decide to either repair it or tear it down.

    If you mean the kingfisher inn. As far as I know, no, it seems to be permanently closed this summer. But if you mean the Surfside Beach Pier, yes it's open and they also are allowing fishing now. And you can walk the pier for free! Hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching. Cheers
