This historical image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the pier's timeless charm and the rich history it holds. Sandgate Pier, located in the northern suburbs of Brisbane, was first opened in 1891. It was built to provide a connection between the mainland and Moreton Island, serving as an essential link for transportation and trade. The pier's construction was a significant milestone for the Sandgate community, as it opened up opportunities for recreation, tourism, and commerce. In this photograph, we can see the pier's elegant design, featuring its distinctive curved shape and the intricate details of the supporting pylons.

Today, Sandgate Pier stands as a testament to Queensland's rich history and the resilience of its people. It continues to be a popular attraction for visitors, offering breathtaking views of Moreton Bay and the opportunity to connect with the past.
