In 1923, the first wooden fishing pier on the Atlantic coast was constructed by Lawrence Kure. The area is rich in historical significance—from Verrazzano's discovery to Cape Fear Indians, pirates, lighthouses, the Rocks, the Ethel Dow Chemical Plant, and the community's role in both the Civil War and World War II.
