Cleveland West Pierhead Light, Lighthouse at Cleveland Harbor entrance, United States.

The Cleveland West Pierhead Light features a conical steel plate tower structure reaching 20 meters in height with an attached fog signal building.

The lighthouse, constructed in 1884, marked the Cleveland Harbor Main Entrance and received its National Register of Historic Places designation in April 1983.

The lighthouse represents the maritime development of Cleveland and Lake Erie, standing as a symbol of the Great Lakes navigation history.

The lighthouse emits a flashing red light every six seconds with a visual range of 11 nautical miles to guide vessels through Cleveland Harbor.

The cast iron construction of Cleveland West Pierhead Light enables the structure to endure severe Lake Erie weather conditions and winter ice formation.
