Making landfall on September 8 of 1900, the hurricane that hit was one of the most deadly, leaving estimated casualties between 6,000 and 12,000 people. It destroyed the town, from homes and rail lines to the coastal contours and shoreline. The city was in ruins with 3,600 homes destroyed, a wall of debris near the shore and only a few buildings still standing. This map stamped by "E. L. Reading & Co."
