Montauk Point Lighthouse
The Montauk Point Lighthouse, located on the eastern tip of Long Island,
is
the 4th oldest active lighthouse in the United States and the oldest
in New York
State. Authorized by the Second congress in 1792 under President George
Washington, construction began on June 7, 1796, and was completed five months
later on November 5th.
Constructed out of sandstone blocks from Connecticut, the lighthouse is 110’6”
high; the walls are 6’ thick at the base tapering to 3’ thick at the op. There
are 137 iron steps to the top of the tower. The lighthouse is still in
operation; the current light is equivalent to 2,500,000 candle power; it flashes
every 5 seconds and can be seen to a distance
of 19 nautical miles.
