@@Kcterry Also, the house with all the sand on the roof it wasn't always oceanfront. A long long time ago there was not just one but two houses in front of it. One fell in the clean and another was condemned and demolished.
They have tried several times to rehab the beach in this area. Sadly, the erosion just happens too fast right here. I do know that the city offered $50k for this home and they were going to demolish it. The owner still had over $200k on the mortgage so they declined. They have federal flood insurance and they will get $250k when the house falls in the ocean. It's a sitting duck at this point.
My parents owned a house on Seagull drive. It was the house that was next to this one. They all got demolished except this one
It's gone now!
@@Kcterry wow so this one has finally been demolished as well ?

It has. About a month ago I believe.
Why can't it be rehabbed?!? Strange

7 years since the other houses were removed
Expensive temporary housing
Curious are those other homes in danger?
I would say not yet.
Was this at one time called the Banks house? (20+ years ago?)
Not sure
I found it in an old Ocean Vacations brochure from 2001. 4:44
Hill-GW08. Ocean Vacations 2000-2001
10211 Seagull Dr. Found it in a 99 brochure too! Wish I could upload the pics.
Thank you again for this! Fascinating, yet a sad example of real-time climate change effects right here in our state💔
