Your Legacy

Canarsie Pier, 1953

Canarsie Pier is a workingman's resort, where you can fish, enjoy the sea breeze, picnic and meet friends. At the time this photo was taken there was also a beach, but swimming in the dubious waters of Jamaica Bay is not advisable nowadays. The structure in the background is the concession stand as it looked in 1953.
