The top of the bluff is forested and the adjacent areas are developed. The erosion in early 1973 and the lack of a fronting beach probably resulted in the construction of the seawall (pictured above) adjacent to but not in front of the site. The beach continued to be narrow and frequently nonexistent in 1974. 85.
