Burlington Breakwater Lights : ウィキペディア英語版 | Burlington Breakwater Lights
The Burlington Breakwater Lights were originally established in 1857 to mark the ends of a low, detached, two piece breakwater long which protects the Burlington, Vermont harbor from Lake Champlain.〔NOAA chart #14782 Lake Champlain: Cumberland Head to Four Brothers Islands, 1/40,000 2006〕 The breakwater is on the National Register of Historic Places, but the lights, being replicas, are not. The two lights were replaced and rebuilt several times as fire and ice took their toll. In the middle of the 20th century, the wood towers were replaced by steel skeleton towers. The City of Burlington arranged for Federal funding for replicas of the original towers which were activated on September 12, 2003.〔 == Gallery ==
