Lighthouse

built 1870
scale 1:500
The tallest lighthouse in the
United States was built to warn
ships of the dangerous Diamond
Shoals off Cape Hatteras where
the warm Gulf Stream meets
the cold Labrador Current,
producing storms and turbulent waters. Westward erosion of the sandy
Outer Banks threatened to undermine the foundation of the brick
lighthouse before it was moved several thousand feet inland in 1999.
