Description
On Topsail Island, North Carolina,1996, after Hurricanes Bertha and Fran. The Ocean City Fishing Pier billboard still stands, but not for long. The advertisement for the pier, tackle shop, and motor court was torn down, as the pier and surrounding area was severely damaged by wind and water. Now, the only remnant that signifies the pier and pier house existed is the concrete Observation Tower built between 1946-48 by the military for developing the ramjet engine.
