What is the significance of the phrase “another section”?

Nehemiah 3:20 (ESV)

20 After him Baruch the son of Zabbai repaired another section from the buttress to the door of the house of Eliashib the high priest.

As was the case with Ezer (Nehemiah 3:19), Baruch had evidently assisted in repairing an earlier section of the wall and now volunteers for another section.
