History

In 1893, George Emerson Bean built a home near the present day Rod & Real Pier. Two years later in 1895 he filed a homesteaded claim of 160 acres (0.65 km) on the north part of Anna Maria Island. Prior to Bean’s homestead claim, Andrew Gowanlack would reside in the area where Bean would file his homestead at. However, Andrew never filed for a homestead claim but did receive three acres of land after Bean filed his homestead claim out of squatting rights. After George Bean’s death in 1898, the land went to his son, George Wilhelm Bean, who partnered with Charles Roser, a wealthy real estate developer from St. Petersburg, to form the Anna Maria Beach Company to develop the area.

In 1911, the Anna Maria City Pier would be built by the Anna Maria Beach Company to accommodate steamships carrying residents and visitors to the island. The pier would have several buildings attached to it. An extension of the pier containing a home would be built in 1913 before the area the house was on in the pier was destroyed in September 1927. Sometime during 1927, a jail would be built as a form of containment for bar patrons who were rowdy and was used until 1940 when a fire would burn down its roof and cells.

Compiled in the late 1930s and first published in 1939, the Florida Guide listed Anna Maria’s population as 77 describing it as:

Bradenton would attempt to annex the City of Anna Maria in 1963. Anna Maria would hold a special election that was described as being “non-official” on April 2, 1963, to confirm Bradenton’s decision. However, it would not be approved as 297 voted against it while 9 voted in favor of it.

During Hurricane Irma in 2017, the city pier was damaged significantly. It was demolished the following year with plans to rebuilt it. The historic city pier was rebuilt and opened in April of 2020.
