Cold Spring Harbor Light

Cold Spring Harbor Light


Huntington, New York (NY), US
Cold Spring Harbor Light was a lighthouse located in Cold Spring Harbor on the North shore of 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, 1 mile to the southwest. An automated light tower and day beacon were erected on the original caisson, and continue to serve as a navigation aid.
