  • A History of the Little Red Lighthouse
    A History of the Little Red Lighthouse Courtesy of Kraig Anderson http://www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=393 The Little Red Lighthouse stopped being used as a functional lighthouse long ago, but over the years, this forty-foot-high structure has become a beacon of another kind. Located underneath George Washington Bridge along a treacherous section of the Hudson River once known as Jeffrey’s Hook, this is one of the few surviving lighthouses in New York City and serves as a quaint reminder of the area’s history. Long ago, Native Americans known locally as the Wiechquaesgeck, part of the Lenape tribe, inhabited much of upper Manhattan and eastern New Jersey. The Wiechquaesgeck, and later the Dutch and English colonists, fished and hunted along the banks of the Hudson River. The Hudson was also an important route for travel, connecting upstate cities such as Albany to New York City and Buy at Art.com the Atlantic Ocean. As traffic increased along the river, so did the number of shipwrecks at Jeffrey’s Hook. In an attempt to reduce accidents, a red pole was placed at Jeffrey’s Hook jutting out over the river to warn travelers of danger. A tubular-lantern post light was established at Jeffrey’s Hook on November 1, 1889, and the following year, a stake was sunk into the bank and fitted with two brackets, spaced ten feet apart vertically, from which two red lights were shown instead of one. Much of the land surrounding the lighthouse, including the riverbanks of Jeffrey’s Hook, was acquired by the city in 1896, and became known as Fort Washington Park.

  • NELL Fall Trip 2009
    New England Lighthouse Lovers ­ NELL NELL Fall Trip 2009 "Lighthouses of Western Long Island Sound by Tom Kenworthy 9/12/09 On September 12, 2009, the New England Lighthouse Lovers cruised the lighthouses of western Long Island Sound. The day started out the same way as last years cruise of eastern Long Island – cloudy with light rain. A short time after we got underway, the rain stopped, and the skies started to clear. That was just a taste of what could have been. As we slowly watched the sun disappear behind the clouds, the rain started again. At times, it was as if it would never stop, pouring down on us in what seemed like buckets full, only to slow to a very pesky drizzle staying with us off and on throughout the day. Thankfully, the heavier rains were between lights and did not interfere with our picture taking – too much. Leaving the dock, we headed for Blackwell Island. In 1921, the island was officially renamed Welfare Island and renamed again in 1973 to Roosevelt Island due to a planned memorial to then President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. From here, we went on to see the following lights: Stepping Stones, Sands Point, and Execution Rocks. Which legend has it, got its name because the British, during Colonial times, and at low tide, would take the condemned prisoners to the reefs chaining them to the rings that were in the rocks and let high tide carry out the sentence of death. We continued on to see Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington Harbor and Eaton’s Neck.
