Temporary servicemen's pier at Harcourt Road in front of Caine House. This was probably used when Fenwick Pier was damaged by typhoon Ruby (September 1964).
- 1964: The Pier had to be rebuilt after typhoons Wanda and Ruby dealt severe blows to the building.
- 1965: The rebuilt Pier opened in June.
Possibly this temporary pier was in service for less than a year, maybe longer.
This is only an assumption as I couldn't find anything on the web - just two photos. Dates are guesses only.
