Grand Haven, MI
Item # HL450
Perhaps the most recognizable of all Michigan lights, the Grand Haven South Pier Light, known as the Grand River Light, was first established in 1839 at the south side of the mouth of the Grand River in Grand Haven, Michigan. In 1855, the light was relocated to a bluff east of the shore. Twenty years later the fog signal building was constructed at the end of the south pier, using some of the materials from the 1855 structure. In 1922, the fog signal building was sheathed in iron in an effort to preserve the building from the unforgiving elements of Lake Michigan. An elevated catwalk was added to enable the keeper to safely navigate the 100 feet from the small tower to the inner lighthouse, and to the shore.This item can be lit by battery (3AA) or plug-in adaptor which is included with purchase.
