Grassy Island Range Lights
Grassy Island Range Lights, Wooden lighthouse in Green Bay, US.
The Grassy Island Range Lights consist of two wooden pyramidal towers with octagonal lanterns, positioned to guide ships through the channel into Green Bay harbor.
Constructed in 1872, these range lights marked a newly dredged channel, replacing earlier navigation methods that relied on the Long Tail Point Light further north.
Local yacht club members saved the structures from demolition in 1966, demonstrating the community's dedication to preserving maritime navigation history.
The front light stands 30 feet above sea level with an 11-mile visibility range, while the rear light reaches 37 feet with a 12-mile range.
The lighthouses underwent conversion to acetylene operation in 1934, with their signals changed to green to differentiate them from surrounding city illumination.
