1897 A 600-ft-long sheet-pile jetty was constructed south of the entrance 

 to provide channel control. 



1898 The south jetty was extended shoreward to maintain the dredged 

 channel . 



1899 The south jetty was repaired with brush and stone and extended to 

 680 ft. A jetty was constructed north of the entrance, parallel to 

 the south jetty, at a length of 680 ft (Figure 45).
