Buffalo North Breakwater East End Light, Maritime beacon on Buffalo waterfront, New York, US
The white bottle-shaped iron tower stands 29 feet tall with four circular windows and a curved iron door at its base.
Constructed in 1903 to guide vessels through Buffalo Harbor, the lighthouse operated until 1985 before its relocation to the Coast Guard station grounds.
The structure represents Great Lakes maritime navigation history and stands as part of a 1,400-foot educational waterfront promenade.
Access to the lighthouse requires following Fuhrmann Boulevard from Highway 5 to the Coast Guard Station on the Buffalo waterfront.
The lighthouse design includes a base diameter of 10 feet that narrows to 2 feet at the top, with an internal winch system for raising the lens.
