Manistique East Breakwater Light
Manistique East Breakwater Light, Lighthouse at Lake Michigan harbor entrance in Manistique, United States.
The square pyramidal steel lighthouse rises 35 feet from a concrete pier foundation with a black parapet lantern room at its peak.
Constructed in 1916 after federal harbor improvements, the lighthouse guided vessels through Lake Michigan waters between Lake Huron and Green Bay.
The lighthouse represents Manistique's maritime growth during the early 1900s when timber and pig iron shipping defined the local economy.
Visitors can access the exterior viewing areas through Lakeview Park's parking facilities near the city beach and marina section.
The structure changed ownership through a GSA auction in 2013 after automated systems replaced the original Fourth Order Fresnel lens in 1969.
