Erosion below the hotel has exposed a column-like structure of unidentified origin, who has been here before?

That's not a wharf, it's far too high above sea level.

I think they wanted to try and stabilize that cliff for its scenic views and to allow people to walk up to the edge, so they drilled down through the sand below sea level and filled those shafts with concrete.

It is, indeed, an impressive pluck.

It is literally just foundation piers and grade beams that have been exposed by erosion...

Can you write a sentence without literally in it? Or is it literally impossible

If you google "room under lake" you'll find info on what I would consider is an exquisite piece of architecture built in like the 1880s. It's a half dome built in an artificial lake with a statue on the top of the dome. It's pretty neat looking with elegant tunnels leading to and from the room. The current owner of the property doesn't seem to maintain or use the structure at all, which is a real shame.

When you realize that this was built well over 100 years ago by a scam artist who was wealthy but not particularly so. Imagine what a modern billionaire with modern construction techniques could build. For instance, I'm told one of the walmart heirs has a crazy underground fortress.

In this video you can see what is left after Ritz Carlton petitioned (successfully, of course) to either remove completely or alter the original site. 1984 was not a premonition, but a documentary.
