Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Station established in 1837, lighthouse was built in 1858. The light has been inactive since 1961. The lighthouse has been abandoned and in poor condition for years. Plans are underway to renovate and move the lighthouse.
Tower Height: 17 meters (55ft) The Burlington Canal Lift Bridge crosses the Burlington Canal that was opened in 1826. The canal was among a series of waterway projects begun, 200 years ago, to provide navigation from Lake Erie to the Atlantic Ocean. There were five different moveable bridges located on this site since 1830. The present bridge was opened in 1962 and carried two lanes of traffic across the canal. This structure originally had tracks for the Hamilton — Northwestern railway which were removed in 1982 when the road way was widened to four lanes. The bridge structure is a tower driven, vertical lift and moveable bridge. The lift span is 116 meters (381ft0 long, weighs 1,996 tons and has a vertical lift of 33.5 meters (110ft). |
