| Summary: | The easternmost lighthouse keeper quarters before a storm carried away its cistern with a brick base and wooden tank. Gutters and piping run from the roof to the tank for collecting rainwater. The Gulfside stairs were also destroyed in 1940s storms. A portion of the light tower, other water tanks, and the oil house is visible behind the building. | |
