Hello, and welcome to LongIslandLighthouses.com

If you've never seen my site before, I think you're in for a pleasant surprise. First, bookmark this site. There's too much information and too many images here for most to explore in one sitting. Then, take your time and get to know the lighthouses of Long Island. And be sure to check back every so often for updates. This is an ongoing project that will culminate with the publishing of a book on Long Island's lighthouse heritage. The book will contain information and images that are not included here, and will be done in a more narrative form than this site.

The hyperlinks on the main page will take you to brief descriptions of past and present lights on and around Long Island, with pictures of many of them. Many of the area's lighthouses have spotty histories, sometimes with contradicting information. I'll include what I feel, based on my research, to be the facts. Where holes in the information exist, I'll make no effort to create my own scenario. Sometimes facts get lost; it happens. But I'll keep searching for answers until I'm comfortable with the integrity of the information I have gathered.

Please feel free to send me e-mail if you have any comments or questions. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you to learn more about Long Island's lighthouses. Perhaps you'll even have a few things to teach me about them. Thanks. :-)
