East Landing Dock 1921–1932. A temporary wharf was installed at East Landing in 1921 with final construction of a reinforced structure, 50 ft. x 225 ft., completed in 1932. The East Landing Dock permitted the supply ship to depart considerably earlier than would have been possible otherwise. The dock allowed management to reassign about 100 workers to other duties sooner, as the the lightering of cargo of the supply ship anchored offshore required much more manpower. (Bower 1922, 53; Bower 1933, 59).
