"Raised walkway that extends from the shore over water" answer
The answer for Wednesday's puzzle is:
PIER
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why PIER fits
If you've already solved PEER, change its second letter from E to I. The bottom word, PIES, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from PIER only in the fourth letter, S instead of R.
