North Dumpling Light, Lighthouse in Long Island Sound, New York.
The octagonal stone tower with a white lantern rises 31 feet from North Dumpling Island, directing vessels through Fishers Island Sound.
The federal government acquired the island from the Winthrop family in 1847 for 600 dollars to establish the navigation structure.
North Dumpling Light marks the maritime heritage of Long Island Sound, guiding maritime traffic between Connecticut and New York waters.
The lighthouse contains a fog signal system that produces one sound blast every thirty seconds to assist navigation in reduced visibility.
Dean Kamen transformed the property into a self-declared nation with its own flag, constitution, and renewable energy systems.
