Project/Position Overview:

Hurricane Florence first began as a tropical storm over the Cabo Verde islands on September 1, 2018, and developed into a hurricane on September 4, 2018. Hurricane Florence impacted Cape Lookout as a Category 1 hurricane on September 14, 2018, at 1:00 AM with sustained winds of 90 mph, and gusts to 105 mph. Cape Lookout National Seashore sustained damage from island wash over, wind, etc. causing damages to park resources including docks, waterways, buildings, landscapes, etc.

Approximately 810 acres beginning at the Cape Lookout Light Station and continuing south toward the point of the cape is designated as the Cape Lookout Village Historic District. This area sustained damage to 100 historic structures and 1 cultural landscape. Repairs to historic fabric should be made in-kind adhering to the Secretary of Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.

This project will replace the roofs on all 8 structures at the Les and Sally's area, as well as exterior repairs and door replacement. This final determination of replacing asphalt shingles with metal roofing is the one way to harden these structures.
