Real Estate in Hilton Head Island

Around 1900 an experimental steam cannon guarding Port Royal Sound was built in what is now Port Royal Plantation . The cannon was fixed but its propulsion placement allowed for long range shots for the time.

In 1931, Wall Street tycoon, physicist, and patron of scientific research, Alfred Lee Loomis along with his brother-in-law and partner, Landon K. Thorne, purchased 17,000 acres (69 km2) on the island (over 63% of the total land mass) for about $120,000 to be used as a secret game reserve.

On the Atlantic coast of the island arebig concrete gun platforms that were built to defend against a imaginable invasion by the Axis powers of World War II. Platforms like these can be found all along the eastern seaboard.

The Mounted Beach Patrol and Dog Training Center on Hilton Head Island trained U.S. Coast Guard Beach Patrol personnel to use dogs and horses to protect the southeastern coastline of the U.S.

Three lumber mills contributed to the logging of 19,000 acres of the island in the early 1950′s .The island population was only 300 residents. Access to Hilton Head was limited to private boats and a state operated ferryprior to 1956 . The island’s economy centered on cotton, shipbuilding ,fishing and lumbering

The James F. Byrnes Bridge was built in 1956 . It was a two-lane toll swing bridge constructed at a cost of $1.5 million that opened the island to automobile traffic from the mainland. In 1974 the swing bridge was hit by a barge which shut down all vehicle traffic to the island until the Army Corps of Engineers built and manned a pontoon bridge while the bridge was being repaired. The swing bridge was replaced by the current four-lane bridge in 1982 .he beginning of Hilton Head as a resort started in 1956 with Charles Fraser developing Sea Pines Resort. Soon, other developments followed, such as Hilton Head Plantation, Palmetto Dunes Plantation, Shipyard Plantation, and Port Royal Plantation, imitating Sea Pines’ architecture and landscape. Sea Pines however continued to stand out by creating a unique vicinity within the plantation called Harbour Town, anchored by a recognizable lighthouse. Fraser was a committed environmentalist who changed the whole configuration of the marina at Harbour Town to save an ancient live oak. It came to be known as the Liberty Oak, known to generations of children who watched singer and song writer Gregg Russell perform under the tree for over 25 years. Fraser was hidden next to the tree when he died in 2002.

The Heritage Golf Classic (now the Verizon Heritage) was start played in Sea Pines Resort in 1969, and has been a regular stop on the PGA Tour ever since.  

Also in 1969, the Hilton Head Island Community Association with success fought off the development of a BASF chemical complex on the shores of Victoria Bluff (now Colleton River Plantation). Soon after, the association and other concerned citizens “south of the Broad” fought the development of off-shore oil platforms by Brown & Root (a section of Halliburton) and ten-story tall liquefied natural gas shipping spheres by Chicago Bridge & Iron.   These events helped to polarize the community, and the Chamber of Commerce started drumming up support for the town to incorporate as a municipality. After the Four Seasons Resort (now Hilton Head Resort) was built along William Hilton Parkway, a referendum of incorporation was passed in May 1983. Hilton Head Island had become a town.

The Land Management Ordinance was passed by the Town Council in 1987. Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort opened in 1996. The Cross Island Parkway opened in January 1997. An indoor smoking ban in bars, restaurants, and public places took effect on May 1, 2007.
