Aquatic Park

Aquatic Park circa 1953

View east across Aquatic Park toward Hyde Street Pier. Derelict riverboat "Fort Sutter" grounded on the beach near rowing clubs. Entrepreneur Barney Gould purchased the old riverboat and brought it to Aquatic Park in February 1953 with hopes to convert it into a showboat. It was later moved to west end of beach where it burned on May 1, 1959.
