Greenbury Point Light, Maritime navigation aid in Anne Arundel County, United States
The Greenbury Point Light consists of a skeletal tower structure positioned at the entrance of the Severn River near Annapolis Harbor.
The initial lighthouse, constructed in 1848 with Argand lamps and reflectors, was replaced in 1892 by a screw-pile structure due to shoreline erosion.
The lighthouse represents the maritime development of Maryland, guiding vessels through the Chesapeake Bay waterways since the mid-nineteenth century.
Located at coordinates 38.975°N and 76.455°W, the lighthouse remains operational and assists ships entering Annapolis Harbor and the Severn River.
The current structure emerged from a 1934 modification when workers removed the original house and installed a skeleton tower that continues functioning.
