Shorten existing boardwalk and convert 50% of the flooring to grated decking
Area: From 2230 ft2 to 1510 ft2
"U" shape brings boardwalk out into the water and uses grated decking entirely for the flooring to allow sunlight to get to shoreline plants
Area: 2000 ft2
Similar to Concept 2 (Over the water + grated decking for floor), but 50% of the footprint and only passes over the shore once.
Area: 1150 ft2
