Boardwalk damaged by Superstorm Sandy set to fall.
The remnants of the Sandy-ravaged Long Beach boardwalk will be demolished, starting Saturday. It will be replaced by a new and stronger boardwalk.
The storm rendered the 2.2-mile boardwalk unsafe and unviable.

The demolition is expected to take about a month. The boardwalk was built in 1914.
