Pictures of the Cedar Point Beach by Henry Suehrstedt

Several pictures taken at the Cedar Point Beach were donated to the Sandusky Library Archives Research Center by Henry Suehrstedt.  They were most likely taken in the 1950s.  

A covered shelter provides some shade to beach goers in this view of the beach.

   

It appears that some visitors to Cedar Point preferred to sit and watch others enjoying the cool waters of Lake Erie.

            

According to Mr. Suehrstedt’s obituary in the January 31, 1985 issue of the Sandusky Register, he was employed as an engineer for the Plum Brook Ordnance Works, and served as a building inspector for the City of Sandusky. Later he worked as an engineer at Cedar Point, and was responsible for designing several buildings at the amusement park, including the train station for the Cedar Point and Lake Erie Railroad.
