Episode Details

Sunset Beach is on the verge of a major transformation with plans for over 1,700 new homes near N.C. 904 and U.S. 17 — a dramatic shift from its current tree-lined, coastal charm. This isn’t the first development wave here: the Mannon C. Gore Bridge replaced a historic swing bridge in 2011, and Sunset Commons shopping center opened in 2006, though its anchor store has sat vacant since 2026. As locals debate what this means for the town’s character and environment, one thing’s clear — change is coming, and it’s not following a straight path.
