Avery Point Lantern Is Ready To Be Moved
Wednesday - September 21st
This is exciting news for all of us in the lighthouse lovers’ community. The
Avery Point lighthouse lantern room has been loaded onto a boat and will be
moved to Avery Point where it will be lifted onto the top of the lighthouse
tower in the next week or so.
In the last two weeks, Brian Villa and Allen Todd, both from the Joseph Gnazzo
Company, inc. in Vernon, CT have been busy getting the tower ready to accept
the lantern room.
