Generator Building

Like the building behind the Second Assistant keeper’s home, this building was originally a woodshed and privy for the First Assistant Keeper's family. In 1940, two electrical generators were installed in the woodshed room when a radio beacon was established at this Light Station.

In 1943, the Coast Guard built the "Radio Shack" addition on the front of the woodshed to house a new radio room. Today, a generator, tools and equipment used by the keepers and a collection of photographs of lighthouses from around the world are displayed here.
