5. North Pier

Genteel Victorian values and a yearning for high-brow entertainment combined to form the North Pier in the 1860s. Its orchestral recitals and upscale theater productions lured visitors of a higher social standing than that of its neighboring piers, although many all-embracing attractions were later installed. Walk out along the pier and appreciate some of the 19th-century architecture along the wooden deck.
