Gulfport Beachfront Eyesore Being Removed
by Keith Burton - GCN 6/10/08

Since hurricane Katrina's devastation August 29, 2005 most of the destruction debris has been removed, except in some areas. While there is still miles of property that has not been redeveloped, one eyesore has been the pilings for the former Chateau De Le Mer condominiums at the corner of U.S. 90 and Cowan Road.

Contractors were seen Tuesday beginning to tear down the concrete pilings that once supported the condominium complex. Last year, the condo structures were removed from the site but the supporting columns, looking like a modern version of Stonehenge, were left standing. It won't be long when those too will be gone.
