pier
Waterside boarding structure
A pier is a structure extending from shore into water, typically supported by pillars.
Piers serve as landing places for boats, platforms for fishing, or walkways for strolling: We walked to the end of the pier.
In architecture, a pier is a solid support between windows or other openings, or a pillar supporting an arch or bridge.
