US-4870311 Muskegon South Pier Lighthouse, Michigan, USA

The Muskegon South Pierhead Light is a lighthouse located on the channel in the harbour of Muskegon, Michigan. It is a round cast iron tower located at the end of the southern pier. The entire lighthouse is painted red and stands 15 meters (48 feet) high.

A little bit of history: Built in 1851, Muskegon's first lighthouse was a brick structure. The existing Muskegon South Pierhead Light conical steel tower replaced the wooden rear range beacon light in 1903, utilizing the original, historic lantern room from the previous 1870 lighthouse structure. The lights were declared excess property by the U.S. Government in 2008. With the help of local volunteers, the Muskegon South Pierhead Light began limited public openings in 2013, and by 2015, regularly scheduled public tours were offered.
