MANISTEE NORTH PIERHEAD LIGHTHOUSE-MANISTEE, MICHIGAN







 
 
The present Manistee lighthouse was established in 1927. It consists of a conical cast iron tower with an overall height of 39 feet. The original optic was a fifth order Fresnel lens. A modern plastic optic is in use today with a focal plane 55 feet above water level. The raised catwalk remains intact in excellent condition.
