This article from the Charlotte Observer describs how the new Johnnie Mercer's Pier was being built of concrete rather than wood. It goes on to discuss the ups and downs of choosing concrete. In our documentary the information on how concrete should make the pier withstand storms can be a good arguement for people to support the reconstrcution by donating when they wish to go out on the pier. This might put our film into the category of a legislative or delibrative rhetorical documentary, meaning our goal is the encourage/discourage - in our case encourage- people to pay the two dollars to enjoy the new pier.
