    I spent time out there some 20 years ago when many of the homes were still occupied on a seasonal basis. (post bridge closure) The only way to get there was walking the 2 miles from up the coast or by boat. (docks on the inlet / bay side) Got a chance to explore the ruins of the merry go-round, the bumper cars, the playhouse, etc. I also took pictures through the windows at some of the abandoned homes. It's interesting that the area had both city water and power. Obviously, the radio station needs power. Some of the homes dated back to the 20s / 30s and some were as late as 50s vintage, but most were left "as is" and never ungraded through the time when the city cleaned everything out. As a side note, the homes were privately owned, but the city retained the property, and you rented the land. (99 year lease) I suppose this was done as a controlling issue, instead of zoning regulations. My brother knew one of the owners and sublet a home for the cost of taxes / rent. He also had a boat locally so easy to get there. BTW, it's amazing how quiet it is out there but that also means you can hear traffic on Rt 95 a mile away (all night) and the sun comes up over the water (sky getting light) around 4 am, which kills the idea of late party nights with most of the residents. You do it once or twice and learn pretty quick that it's hard to sleep late while there. Another interesting tid-bit was that "swing bridge" was originally from a RR up the coast (mid 1800s vintage) and was moved there back in the day then road sections were constructed to tie it all together. The bridge itself was still functional after the fire but it was left open to deter people trying to cross the burned-out sections on foot.
