Stuyvesant Light, Lighthouse in Columbia County, US
The Stuyvesant Light features a brick tower with a lantern at its summit, positioned along the eastern bank of the Hudson River.
Congress appropriated 8,000 dollars in May 1828 for the construction of this navigational structure to assist vessels on the Hudson River.
The lighthouse stands as a representation of the maritime development that shaped transportation and commerce in Columbia County during the 1800s.
The structure remains visible from various points along the riverbank, offering photographers and maritime enthusiasts clear views of its exterior design.
In 1902, ice forces carried away the original stone lighthouse, leading to the construction of a replacement structure that endured through the decades.
