The oddity, explained
Why is Gem unusual?
Gem appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Gem was a built in 1868 and lost on 1927. Re-purposed first as a pontoon, then as a foot bridge. It was then moved and abandoned at the North Arm. Heritage Atlas treats that specific classification-and-description combination as the oddity; the score is a comparative discovery signal, not proof of mystery or the supernatural.
Evidence and further exploration
The coordinate, category and description remain tied to the cited source. Comparative oddness helps discovery; it does not add facts that the source does not provide.
