1977 - Derby Wharf Light in Massachusetts - DeactivatedThis lighthouse was built at the end of Derby Wharf during the decline of the fishing trade in Salem as an aid to navigation within Salem Harbor. Because of its proximity to the town itself, this lighthouse was maintained by caretakers until its automation in 1970. The lighthouse was deactivated in
1977 and was finally relighted in 1983 by the Friends of Salem Maritime as a private aid to navigation.
