Menominee North Pier Light
The Menominee North Pier lighthouse is located in the harbor of Menominee, Michigan. The station was first lit in 1877. The current structure and its still operational light was lit in 1927, and automated in 1972. It is also sometimes called the "Menominee (Marinette) North Pierhead Light". The building originally had a diaphone fog signal structure attached, and it was later removed. The iron catwalk was removed in 1972 when the light was automated. This light is paired with a large rear range light. That is denominated the Menominee (Marinette) North Pier light, and is also an active aid to navigation. Its focal plane 59 feet, and its characteristic is a continuous red light. The tower is a 50-foot square pyramidal steel skeletal tower with gallery. It is painted red, and located on the Menominee North Pier about 600 feet from the pierhead light. It may be accessed by walking the pier. The site is open, but the tower is closed. U.S. Coast Guard.
