1980.001.0395Description
Cedar Point Lighthouse. Color transparency. View is from the water, looking south. This is the north side of the house. Two and a half story home with a gable roof and the light on one side of the roof. No chimney is visible. On the visible gable end is a three bay porch with pillars, a brick railing all around and a leanto roof. There is one window opening with a light colored sill visible on the first floor and another window opening that is probably on the stairway. The space under the porch is bricked in. There are two small windows with light colored sills on the first level. There is also a large sign on the building between those windows probably advising boaters to stay clear. On the near side of the house roof is a large square structure with one visible window. On top of it is a square platform with a metal? fence to provide a railing. Above that is an eight-sided structure capped by a circular roof with a ball on top, just like the Blakiston Light. There are chunks of brick and concrete behind a low rock breakwater. The house is in derelict condition and very stark.Collection
