Description
The Chicago Harbour Lighthouse was constructed in 1893 for the World's Columbian Exposition and moved to its present site in 1919. The US Lighthouse Board prominently displayed "its 'state of the art' wares and engineering achievements." Prominently featured was "the engineering marvel" of Spectacle Reef Light and a 111-foot-tall (34 m) skeletal cast iron lighthouse tower.
In 1917 the breakwater was renovated. At the time, the lighthouse was moved to its present site, and its attached fog signal room and boathouse were built.
Exposure, colour and definition adjusted to capture the mood of the time the original photograph was taken. 2012
