Historically, the sand was, and to a lesser degree still is, replaced by new sand generated by the erosion of the Scarborough Bluffs to the east. This source of sand has been diminished by municipal efforts to reduce erosion of the bluffs, and groynes constructed of rocks have been used to stabilise the shoreline. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Attractions_and_landmarks">Attractions and landmarks</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Beaches,_Toronto&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Attractions and landmarks"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg/220px-R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg/330px-R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg/440px-R.C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant_Aerial_view_2023.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1600" data-file-height="1200" /></a><figcaption>Built in the 1930s, <a href="/wiki/R._C._Harris_Water_Treatment_Plant" title="R.
