Lubec Channel Light

From lighthouses

Lubec, Maine

Built: 1890

Automated: 1939

This 40-foot tower sits on a concrete and cast-iron caisson in the middle of Lubec Channel at the harbor's western entrance. This "sparkplug" style light is typical of late 19th century channel lights. The original fourth order Fresnel lens was replaced with a modern optic in 1985.
