JohnL WACKO Posts: 178 From: Tampa, FL Registered: Jun 99	posted 07-10-2001 09:55 AM I just got back from a week up on Long Island. I had a chance to go out to view the Huntington Harbor Lighthouse while I was there. I was wondering how the restoration was coming along since I did not have the greatest angle to view the entire structure? It looked in pretty good shape from where I was.

John John, After many years, the exterior of the lighthouse has been completely restored. Save Huntington's Lighthouse, Inc., is currently working on restoring the interior of the lighthouse with the hopes of making it into a small, offshore museum. Unfortunately, the costs of restoring a lighthouse are usually higher than the money on hand, so it has been a slow process. For more information on their efforts, I suggest you check out http://www.longislandlighthouses.com/savehuntingtonslighthouse/index.htm ------------------ Diane [This message has been edited by DMancini (edited 07-10-2001).]
