is a
Lighthouse off
Orient, New York . It is interesting because it was originally a
Screwpile Lighthouse that was later converted to concrete caision foundation. It's early appearance as a screwpile lighhouse gave it the nick name "Bug Light" as there were no other such lighthouses in the vicinity.
