Description
The Frisco Pier used to be a popular destination on Hatteras Island. A few years ago, it was seriously damaged by a hurricane. The following spring it took another hit from a nor'easter. This shot was taken in-between. After the nor'easter, two sections were completely taken out. Sadly, the owners insurance wouldn't cover the expense of rebuilding. After two years of trying to raise money, or sell to someone who could rebuild, they had to give up. By that time all that was left of the pier was a couple of small sections that served as a bird roost. Finally the remains of the pier house were demolished, and the structure was returned to the sea!
