The lighthouse is all that is left.
This is a very unique light. The middle and bottom part of the lens is stationary.
The top section has 10 panels. The original operation had the top part rotating once very 5 minutes producing additional light every 30 seconds (to ship on the lake, the light was constant with a brighter flash of light every 30 seconds). Hope that makes sense.
From what I've read, there are other lights that had a similar design. I don't have any names that do.
I'll watch out for future lights that may have this unique design.

I really like your perspective in the second one. When I am able to go up our lighthouse, I'm going to steal your idea and try to do the same.
Thanks for the idea; but MOSTLY for sharing your photos.
