The Algiers Before Deconstruction, 1982

Scope and content:

By 1982, the City of Sanibel took over the twenty-five acres of property surrounding the Algiers, and after considering it as a potential spot for its City Hall, decided the boat had deteriorated too far to be renovated. The site of the Algiers is now Gulfside Park. This picture is a view along the boat's side including the stairs leading to the upper deck.

Places:
