Still determining exact dates
The recovered Grassy Island Lighthouses were brought to the
Yacht Club harbor in the later half of the 1960s shortly after being
decommissioned. They were located on the north side of the harbor
where they remained until being moved in 1998 & 1999. Once moved to
the breakwall on the west end of the harbor, restoration began and
is still continuing today.
Below is a picture of the Lighthouses when they sat on the north
side of the harbor. The building that can be seen is the Coast Guard
Station.

across the harbor. |

To the right is a picture shot from on the Fox River and looking
northeast toward the Yacht Club harbor. Restoration work in
2002 has been active as one can tell by the scaffolding around
the taller light. The shorter light is looking pretty good
having received similar repairs the previous year. |
