Back in the 70s there used to be a wooden bridge that you'd drive over to get into North Wildwood. We loved seeing the little houses on the way in. It's very interesting to see what it looks like now from above.
Its still there. Look under the new bridge
It's still there I just didn't fly under the bridge to show it because I don't like flying drones in places I can't see it, that I could hit things like the supports for the Bridge. If I had vr style headset for them, I might be more likely.
@@MattManduke I think they were referring to the little old wooden bridge in Angelsea just before you go into town
When I was a kid in the 70's and early 80's there was 2 small wooden bridges on a small 2 lane road that went through there before they built the big bridge. The little wooden bridges were so cool when I was a kid. It was like we were on an adventure. And right before the bridges there was a red barn that had a go cart track that we stopped at every night before going into wildwood crest for the boardwalk. I would get so excited riding the go carts knowing we were headed to the boardwalk afterwards. I remember when they were getting ready to build the big bridge and shut down the small road. I was bummed because that road really made you feel something heading into wildwood crest. It's not the same anymore. Good memories from childhood. Thanks for the video 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🍻
I think they should reopen the railroad that hauled sand from the beach to the glass factories inland
Your memory, is askew there. First of all, you cannot get to Wildwood Crest, from THAT bridge. Only, North Wildwood. The go-kart tracks were after, the 'George Redding' Wildwood bridge, heading OUT of Wildwood. Never had go-kart tracks, near the Grassy Sound bridge. The red barn you're describing, was a seafood restaurant, called 'Rods Seafood' restaurant. It's still around, on North Wildwood boulevard, coming into North Wildwood, next to the Dairy Queen.
@@MattManduke The old WWl, track bed. The little collapsed concrete bridges, further north, near the Parkway, have 1918 imprinted on them.
The roadway on the northside, of the bridge, is the old entrance, to North Wildwood. On the same side, where the house's are actually on the waterway, you'll see a vacant spot, with pilings. There used to be a big, red & white house with a copula sitting there, until a unusually extra high tide, floated it off it's pilings one day, and it sunk in the middle of the channel, some 20 years ago. The big concrete bridge is the Grassy Sound Bridge (a 'fixed span bridge'), which replaced the old version (a one part, 'draw bridge'), back in 1993. Took them (a company named 'Balfour Beatty'. A British company) approximately 4 years, to build that bridge, and connecting highway. If you watch s sci-fi/horror film, titled: 'Five Million Years To Earth' (1967), you'll see in the beginning, a Balfour Beatty project. The bridge didn't replace the old, rickety one, but a small drawbridge, further north. The smaller curved bridge, is named 'Beach Creek Bridge', which is where the rickety wooden one, was.
I vaguely remember that as a kid, I was born in 1981, but my parents preferred stone harbor
By definition, something is unique or it isn't. There are no degrees of uniqueness.
I'm unique, so since I made this video it's unique
My grandparents owned a house in that same place a long time ago...I remember that terrible bridge going to north Wildwood. I thought the entire area was demolished.
No they just rebuilt the bridge and left the tiny terrible houses, I discovered it's existence when I worked at the cmch domino's when people ordered, the dock was crappy and on windy days it was a bit uneasy
@@MattManduke so many fond memories running around on these path ways...as a kid we would play a hide and seek game called spring...I jumped onto the mud swampy area and lost my sneakers...lol...the fishing and crabbing was great at one time. Thanks for the information.
I can feel the flies biting
Not on a breezy day
@@MattMandukewas it breezy
Grassy Sound once had a post office, though I have no idea specifically where it was located. I do have a postcard that was mailed from there, I forget what year at the moment.
Sounds interesting, I like seeing tiny post offices, idk why
Not aware, of that.
Next to the bridge.
There I fixed it
I stayed out there in the early 60’s. It was sqatters rights. Boy there was some real turd houses
Probably the same houses today
I don't know.. I watched your video like 10 times and I still don't see the little village under the bridge 🤔
It's called grassy sound, it's just the houses on docks, they don't go under the bridge but depending on the time of day they're in the shadow of the bridge
Thanks for watching it 10 times though
@@MattManduke 🤣
I grew up in Philly and I used to go crabbing by there and drive my boat around there back in the 90s when I was a teen 👍 I lived by the other bridge, the Rio grande across from Urie's 🍀🇺🇸
@@MattManduke yeah I was just messin with you man... Check my other message.
I grew up going over the old much lower wooden bridge where you can see those houses on the sides much more clearly and there were many more of them back then, back during the "Castle Dracula" and my uncle's club "Harry the hats" days and all 😉 seriously the good old days!!
Great video, gotta work on drone steering..a little jerky.
It was a spark it only had a 2 axis gimble, it was also lower tech with steering than modern drones, my next one was Mavic zoom 2 it has a 3 axis gimble and was much less finicky, but after owning it for two years, they changed the software that it ran on and made it unable to fly, that was two years ago and they still haven't addressed the issue so I won't ever buy another dji, because that's a $2000 piece of trash, and I haven't seen any other brand making anything I want, so no more drone footage
