Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | There's actually a long history of lights at the mouth of the Chicago River. The light placed there in 1832 was the earliest on Lake Michigan. The tower pictured above was constructed in 1893, and moved to the outer breakwater in 1917. A beautiful Third Order lens, with red and white flashing panels, was installed after the Columbian Exposition of 1891. The award-winning lens had been built especially for Pt. Loma, California, but instead, it was installed in the just-completed Chicago Lighthouse. Today this light exhibits a flashing red beacon. |
