About Green Island Lighthouse
A skeletal steel tower stands 20.5 meters tall at the southwestern tip of Green Island. This structure, built in 1939, has a focal height of 24 meters and emits a white flash every 2.5 seconds, visible for 14.1 nautical miles. The tower's design is a square cylindrical steel skeletal form topped with a gallery. The original light station was established in 1855, with the current tower replacing an earlier structure. The U.S. Coast Guard maintains the active aid to navigation, while the Ohio Division of Wildlife manages the surrounding grounds.
