Description
Honored to be chosen photo of the day "Lighthouse" in "USA Photographers Only" group! 9/22/17
Would look lovely in the home or office.
Pierhead Lighthouse on a very cold winter's morning. The bright red, ironclad, historic lighthouse is located at the end of Simmons Island pier in Kenosha Wisconsin, USA.
...................................................................................................................
A pierhead lighthouse has been present at Kenosha as early has 1856. By the early 1900s, the Kenosha Harbor had undergone some major renovations. Two new piers were constructed which jutted out into the lake, as well as an enhanced break-wall to protect the north pier from the fury of Lake Michigan.
....................................................................................................................
Located on the north pier, it is listed in the United States Coast Guard light list and the United States Geological Survey Geographic Names Information System as the Kenosha Light. It currently is painted red, but the lighthouse also has been painted white in the past. The adjacent south pier and breakwater also had lighthouses, but now have cylindrical navigational lights. These included fog signal buildings and elevated iron catwalks, all of which have been removed.
