Description

Title: Sunset at Santa Monica Beach

The FAA logo Watermark will not appear on the final purchased photograph.

I went to the Santa Monica Beach pier in Southern California to take some sunset shots and I was looking for a place to park as I drove by the entrance to the Santa Monica beach pier. Soon as I saw the neon sign to the entrance of the pier and the blue lavender sunset with palm trees I new that was going a special photograph print.

Santa Monica Pier History
The current Santa Monica Pier is actually two adjoining piers. The long and narrow City-owned Municipal Pier was built in its present location around 1908, primarily to carry sewer pipes beyond the breakers and had no amenities. The short and wide adjoining Pleasure Pier to the south was built by Charles I. D. Looff in 1916 to serve as an amusement park. The Pleasure Pier was then purchased by Walter Newcomb in 1943 and the name was changed to Newcomb Pier. The City acquired the Newcomb Pier in 1953.
