Buffalo Harbor North and South entrance Lights, Maritime beacons at Buffalo Harbor entrance, New York, US.
Two cast iron lighthouses mark the north and south entrances of Buffalo Harbor, with the south tower reaching 43.5 feet in height.
The harbor lights were established in 1903, with the south light operating until 1993 and the north light being deactivated in the 1980s.
The Buffalo Lighthouse Association maintains these maritime structures, which represent early 20th-century Great Lakes navigation technology.
The south light has been replaced by a modern post light, while access to both structures remains restricted due to industrial surroundings.
The south lighthouse features a brown cylindrical base, white conical midsection, and black lantern, originally equipped with a fourth-order Fresnel lens.
