Patented Feb. 23, 1937 UNITED STATES PATET QFFICE Application June 21, 1935, Serial No. 27,643 Renewed July 23, 1936 Claims.
The purpose of this invention is to design and construct an artificial lagoon at an ocean shore resort which will form a relatively complete marine amusement center with protected swimming 5 pools, dockage for small and large sailing craft and ocean liners and also landing space for hydroairplanes, all of which is protected.
The invention is an artificial lagoon formed and substantially enclosed by two jetties at the sides and a breakwater at front, and a central pier connecting the breakwater with the shore dividing the lagoon into two parts. Protected entrances are provided at the sides of the lagoon by stopping the ends of the jetties short of the breakwater and projecting the ends of the breakwater beyond the ends of the jetties. Suitable buildings, railways, and space and facilities for all kinds of amusements and concessionaries are provided on the central pier, breakwater and jetties, and swimming pools are also provided between central pier and jetties.
Substantially all piers which are of a sufficient size to accommodate ocean liners or other sailing craft extend straight outward into the water and when located on the ocean front boats moored at their sides are exposed to the elements and up to the present time any pier has not been constructed connecting with a protecting breakwater formed by wings extending from both sides of the outer end of the pier and overlapping shorter piers or jetties with sufficient space for passage of ocean liners between the ends of the jetties and the ends of the breakwater and with the Water in these spaces of suificient depth to accommodate ocean liners and the like. Such a lagoon as formed by said jetties and breakwater provides protected landing and mooring space for all kinds of sailing and power craft including ocean liners and hydro-airplanes and makes it possible to provide two relatively large swimming pools in which one may be used for water sports and pageants while the other is used for private bathing; and also makes it possible to provide an enormous amount of rentable space on the central pier, breakwater and jetties for concessionaries and the like with suitable amusements to attract people to the lagoon.
The object of the invention is, therefore, to provide a comparatively enormous lagoon consisting of a central pier with protecting means which forms a sheltered harbor so that boats of any description may enter and be moored therein.
Another object is to provide an amusement center which combines water and other sports.
Another object is to provide an amusement pier which is also capable of serving as a terminal for boats of any description, hydro-airplanes, railways and bus lines.
A further object is to provide a lagoon having protected harbors in the sides which is of sufii- 5 cient size to contain comparatively all water sports.
And a still further object is to provide a lagoon which is a combination of a protected harbor, swimming pool and amusement pier, which is 10' comparatively simple and economical.
With these ends in view the invention embodies a large pier with a building at the inner end, a tower at the outer end, connecting with a breakwater formed by wings extending from the sides 15 of the outer end of said pier, jetties extending outward at both sides of the pier stopping short of the ends of the breakwater wings thereby forming entrances into the lagoon, swimming pools and protected harbors on each side of the pier protected by the jetties at the sides and the breakwater at front and, if desired, an aerial railway for sight seeing and the like.
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description taken in connection with the drawings, wherein:
Figure l is a view showing the lagoon.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section through the lagoon with the length of the respective parts reduced, showing a section through the swimming o pool, bridge, and breakwater.
Figure 3 is a view showing a side elevation of one of the jetties.
Figure 4 is a plan view of the entire lagoon.
In the drawings the lagoon is shown as it may be made wherein numeral I indicates the central pier, numerals 2 and 3 the wings forming the breakwater connecting with the outer ends of the central pier, and numerals i and 5 the jetties.
The central pier i may be made of any size or 40 length, however, it is preferred to make it of sufficient length so that water of a sumcient depth to accommodate all shipping requirements will be obtained at the entrances to the lagoon, and also so that a sufficient area may be provided within the lagoon to accommodate the various uses such as boating, swimming, hydro-airplane landing and takeoff and dockage for ocean liners, etc. An aerial railway, as indicated by the numeral 6, may be installed on said pier and this may extend only between the building I and the tower 8 or around the wings 2 and 3 of the breakwater if desired.
It is understood that the railway may or may not be used as desired. The pier may be provided with continuous buildings providing stores or shops, however, it will be understood that this may be open or provided with buildings of any description throughout the length thereof.
The breakwater formed by the wings 2 and 3 is relatively solid, and the lagoon sides of these wings are provided with docking platforms 9, and these platforms may be at difierent elevations to compensate for changes in the tide. These platforms may be provided with ramps or stairways extending up to the top of the breakwater wings. The wings of the breakwater are preferably formed with circular ends if] as shown to provide sufficient stability and at the same time to eliminate all corners or other objectionable projections.
The jetties 4 and 5 are preferably made of solid construction and these may be provided with buildings for concessionaries or other rentable devices or spaces, and the outer ends ll of the jetties may also be formed circular to provide suflicient stability and means of eliminating all corners or other objectionable projections.
The. lagoon is constructed with dividing walls forming bridges I2 and I3 or dams with flood gates which provide protected pools I4 and I5 at the inner end. These walls 12 and [3 are preferably made in the form of dams with flood gates so that the elevation of the water in the pools may remain constant at all times. However one or both of these pools may also be formed without the walls or dams and may not be completely enclosed. In all cases said pools will be protected at all water inlets by screens to keep out sharks and all other aquatic animals and debris.
The walls l2 and [3 also form bridges connecting the central pier with the jetties and these may also be provided with booths or buildings providing rentable space for concessionaries.
It is preferred to make the. sides of the central pier, adjoining the pools, with stepped concrete platforms I6 and I! providing seating space for patrons watching water sports in the pools or 5 for the use of the bathers, and it will also be understood that similar stepped platforms may be provided on the jetties.
The jetties may also be provided with small buildings or towers ill at the outer ends and entrance booths or arches 9, at the inner ends.
The buildings 1 and 8, at the ends of the central pier I, are relatively large and may be used for exhibitions, auditoriums, or for amusements, as may be desired.
The lagoon is constructed on a beach, preferably with a boardwalk 29 extending along the inner end, sand beaches 2| between the boardwalk and swimming pools, and protected areas 22 and 23 in the outer part thereof.
It will be understood that other changes may be made in the construction without departing from the spirit of the invention. One of which changes may be in the relative. proportions of the length and width of either or all of the parts, another may be in the use of any other wings, jetties or piers in combination with the protected central pier and harbors, another may be in the use of any other buildings, railways or devices in combination with this lagoon, and still another may be in the use of a greater number of the partitions, bridges or walls as it will be understood that the space between the jetties and pier and may be divided into as many pools or areas as desired.
The concept will be readily understood from the foregoing description. In use this concept may be constructed, preferably at a seaside resort with the central pier and jetties extending out into the ocean and deep water and with the central pier connecting with the breakwater and providing entrances to the lagoon between the ends of the jetties and the ends of the breakwater all as shown and described. The central pier and connecting breakwater, jetties and bridges may be provided with rentable booths and buildings, railways and the like for concessionaries so that a relatively large income 3 used for water games, exhibitions or pageants,
the other may be used for private use and the same is true of the docking spaces. The space between the ends of the jetties and the ends of the breakwater is relatively large and the water depth at low tide sufiicient to accommodate ocean liners and it will be noted that they are protected from the elements while moored at the docks. It will also be noted that hydro-airplanes may readily land in either side of the lagoon and even though the ocean may be relatively rough the water in these protected areas will be comparatively smooth. This idea may be used for other purposes and it will be understood that this invention relates primarily to an artificial lagoon enclosed by two jetties and a breakwater and containing a central pier extending from the shore or board-walk out to and connecting with said breakwater and with jetties positioned at both sides of said central pier and stopping short of the wings of the breakwater thereby permitting entrances into the lagoon, also providing protected swimming pools within the lagoon.
Having thus fully described the invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. An artificial lagoon enclosed by a jetty on each side and a breakwater at the front connecting with a central pier and with wings of said breakwater extending out at bgth sides of the end of said central pier and overlapping the outer ends of said jetties thereby providing protected entrances to the lagoon.
2. A lagoon as described in claim 1 having dividing walls forming dams connecting the jetties with the. sides of the central pier providing 4 swimming pools, said dividing walls, central pier, and breakwater having walkways on the upper surfaces thereof.
3. A lagoon as described in claim 1 having walls connecting the jetties to the central pier forming protected swimming pools, and flood gates in said walls for retaining water at a constant level in said pools.
4. A lagoon as described in claim 1 having dividing walls forming dams connecting the jetties with the sides of the central pier forming swimming pools, said dividing walls having openings therethrough.
5. A lagoon as described in claim 1 having bridges connecting the jetties and pier.
