Seven workers performing demolition work on Seattle's deteriorated Pier 58 had to evacuate the site when a portion of the 1974-built structure collapsed into Elliott Bay Sept. 13.

五名工人能够退出该网站，两人落入水中，但在西雅图消防部门抵达现场之前迅速删除。西雅图市表示，码头上的所有工人都戴着安全协议规定的个人浮选设备。

The two workers were treated by Seattle Fire medics and transported to Harborview Medical Center in stable condition. Orion Marine Contractors, Inc., the company performing the emergency work, referred all questions to the city. Orion is based in Houston and has an office in Tacoma, Wash.

码头58，在拥有伟大轮子的西雅图水族馆（码头59）和矿工着陆（码头57）之间，在2022年被替换，作为西雅图西雅图节目的一部分。但是，在8月6日，西雅图公园和娱乐人员证实，码头已经转移了几英寸，并立即关闭公共通道并围栏网站。8月份安装了数字监控系统以检测运动。

“桥墩和其他海洋结构随着时间的推移自然而然地恶化，”JesúsGuirere，西雅图公园和休闲主管表示，在一份声明中。“我们一直在预期多年来一直在监测这种结构，最终需要更换。”

西雅图市长珍妮邓尔坎批准了8月14日批准了码头紧急拆除计划, following a recommendation from engineering firm Seattle Structural. Orion was hired on Aug. 26 to begin work on the pier. Due to “accelerated deterioration of the pier,” the city announced on Sept. 11 work would extend to seven days a week.

During the partial collapse, the construction team was in the process of removing a concrete section of the pier to delay further pier movement, according to a city spokesperson.

码头59，码头57或邻近海堤没有“观察到的损坏”。

“这座城市将在安全的安全之后立即继续去除码头58，并将评估最佳方法，了解码头继续不稳定，”该市在一份声明中表示。“在本周晚些时候将继续删除码头的更新。”
