Buffalo Harbor South Entrance Light, Cast iron lighthouse at Stony Point breakwater, Lackawanna, United States.
The white conical tower rises 43.5 feet from its concrete base, featuring a black lantern and an L-shaped concrete pier at Buffalo Harbor entrance.
Congress allocated $45,000 in 1900 to establish this light station, which began operations in 1903 and continued guiding vessels until its deactivation in 1993.
The lighthouse stands as part of the U.S. Coast Guard Lighthouses and Light Stations on the Great Lakes, representing maritime navigation development in New York.
The structure remains visible from the boat launch near Fuhrmann Boulevard, though direct access is restricted due to surrounding industrial properties.
The lighthouse originally produced a specific pattern of two white flashes followed by a red flash every ten seconds using a fourth-order Fresnel lens.
