About Cold Spring Harbor Lighthouse
This lighthouse began operation in 1890. The structure stands 11 meters tall with its focal plane at the same elevation. It emits a white and red light. The original purpose of the lighthouse was to mark a shoal situated at the entrance to Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island's north shore. The station was deactivated in 1965, and the original tower and light were relocated to a private site approximately one mile southwest.
Background
Cold Spring Harbor Light was a lighthouse located in Cold Spring Harbor on the north shore of New York's Long Island. It was built in 1890 to mark a shoal at the entrance to Cold Spring Harbor. After the lighthouse was deactivated in 1965, the original light and tower were purchased by a private individual and moved to its current location on land, one mile (1.6 km) to the southwest. An automated light tower and day beacon were erected on the original caisson, and continue to serve as a navigation aid.Light & Optic
