==History==
In 1860, the Army Corps of Engineers began designing pier structures in Ontonagon at the mouth of the river. The initial construction of the Ontonagon piers was carried out during 1868-1872 The inner 1069 feet of the west pier, constructed of wood pilings filled with stone, dates from this time.〔 Over the next 20 years, another 1770 feet of the east pier and 1398 feet of the west pier was constructed,〔 and a pierhead light was installed on the west pier.〔 In addition, the inner 545 ft of the east pier was reconstructed; all of these pier structures were of rock-filler timber cribs.〔
In the 1920 and 1930s, a stone superstructure was built over sections of both piers, and a concrete cap was constructed on the inner 1,069 feet of the west pier. In 1947, the west pierhead was rebuilt, and in 1883 various structural improvements were made.〔
