wilmington real estate: WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH - WORKING ON THE BEACHES - 09/29/08 07:55 PM
While down at the Wrightsville Beach today i noticed a lot of work going on. Nor'easter type rain events are brutal on our east facing beaches. Wrightsville Beach was one of those beaches that lost the lower part of its sand banks in the storm. This creates cliffs called escarpments. These are around 3- 4 foot embankments on the side of the beach. It is hard, therefore, for anyone - handicapped or otherwise to get down off these hills to get to the beach. The Wrightsville Beach grounds crew were bulldozing these huge mounds down so people can easily access the beaches. Storms affect … (0 comments)
