OT: Anyone Here Ever Been To The Santa Monica Pier In California?

Has anyone else here ever been to Santa Monica, California ... specifically the pier? If so, there will be a new ferris wheel soon as the old one was sold on ebay for $132,400.00 here:

how will the new owners move it?
Appears that it might have been bought for scrap.
