The lighthouse exterior was constructed in Buffalo, New York and the interior was finished after the structure was placed along the breakwater of Lake Erie.
Fairport Harbor Lighthouse was originally built in 1825. After years of deterioration, the lighthouse was rebuilt in 1871, to stand at sixty-feet tall.
I would love to visit Fairport Harbor again to explore the lighthouses, Finnish Heritage Museum, and the local restaurants and shops of this lakeside town.
