}} Saugerties Light, known also as the Saugerties Lighthouse, is a lighthouse on the Hudson River north of Saugerties, New York. ==History== When it was built in 1869, it replaced the earlier 1838 lighthouse. Its Coast Guard service was ended in 1954.〔(Hudson Lights )〕 It is currently managed by the non-profit Saugerties Lighthouse Conservancy which purchased the lighthouse in 1986 and has restored it. The conservancy manages the nature trail leading to the lighthouse, offers two bed and breakfast rooms and public tours. A small museum displays artifacts of the original lighthouse and the restoration efforts, as well as the history of the Saugerties waterfront. The lighthouse keeper of 1835 was Abraham Persons. He was paid $350 for the year.〔Official Register of the United States, United States Civil Service Commission, 1835, pg 65〕 The US Coast Guard has identified Saugerties Light as one of its Historic Light Stations in New York.〔(Coast Guard list of assets )〕 Saugerties Light is shown on the NOAA Chart 12347.〔(NOAA Chart 12347 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Saugerties Light」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
