Lighthouse · St. Joseph, Michigan
St. Joseph North Pier Inner Light
The tower was first lit in 1907 and is still an aid to navigation. Its light shows a white light, on and off for equal times, every 2 seconds, seen up to 7 nautical miles out. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The taller rear range light, an octagonal tower on a square steel building, stands midway along the north pier at the mouth of the St. Joseph River.
