Today, Steep Pier is being re-invented by Anthony Catanoso & crew.
Rides, attractions, music and fun. After 20 years of leasing Steel Pier from Donald Trump, Anthony and his brothers, along with another partner, decided to buy the 1,000 ft pier from Trump. Before the Catanoso’s took over, it was primarily being used as a private heli-pad for Trump.
