Savannah Light, Maritime lighthouse at Savannah River entrance, Georgia, US
The steel tower lighthouse marked the entrance to Savannah River with its automated signal system and Texas tower configuration.
Built in 1922, the lighthouse guided maritime traffic until 1996 when the Singapore container ship Neptune Jade collision led to its demolition.
The lighthouse connected to Tybee Island Light Station maintained maritime navigation safety for vessels entering Savannah River throughout its service period.
Maritime personnel at Tybee Island Light Station controlled the automated functions of Savannah Light through remote monitoring systems.
The site now contains underwater remnants following the complete destruction of the steel tower structure in the 1996 vessel collision.
