COMMENTS:
There are current houses still there and current residents but it is a very small community REMAINS: Old piers and an abandoned old restaurant on the shore |
This use to be a booming town with boardwalks and roller coasters on the shore and other amusement rides. It was a tourist attraction site with ferries and a good fishing and crabbing community. Everything was destroyed, but the restaurant when a 30 foot wave took everything out. This tidal wave happened in the early 1900's. The other guy who wrote about woodland was wrong if its the same one i'm talking about, because i use to live in woodland. Woodland is located off of rt 9 through smyrna, de.
