How about a SHIP ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE? It is located in the Gulf of Mexico and has recently been restored after it had been destroyed by a hurricane.

That's an interesting looking light. It would make a good addition to a collection of HLs. Looks like a nice beach right in front of it too.

The Coast Guard Historian's site has a couple photos of this light also:

A replica of the lighthouse only (no keeper's quarters or other structures) has been built on the site of the original.
