SANTA CRUZ — Santa Cruz was still reeling the day after a large section at the end of the city’s 110-year-old wharf collapsed into the sea under the pressure of a pounding ocean swell that also flipped boats and caused widespread damage at a nearby harbor.

City officials said during a virtual press conference Tuesday that engineering crews were actively assessing the structural integrity of what remained from the formerly 2,745-foot-long local landmark after a roughly 150-foot section at its tip that was under construction dropped into the sea, dragging three constructions workers with it that were all safely rescued.
