Description
"The Tybee Pavilion, located at the end of a pier on Tybrisa Street, is used for festivals and other special events throughout the year. The original Tybrisa Pavilion, which burned down in 1967, was popular for its crystal ball, big bands, and dime dances early in the twentieth century. Tybee Pavilion
also became well known during this time as a resort town. A short boat or train ride away from Savannah, Savannah Beach promised relief from the summertime heat and humidity that plagued inland areas. The Tybrisa Pavilion, with its famous crystal ball, big bands, and dime dances, was the island's most popular destination. With the opening of Tybee Road in 1923 to automobile traffic, the way of life on the island slowly started to change. When the Tybrisa Pavilion and other local establishments burned down in 1967, the end of an era was apparent." (georgiaencyclopedia.com)
