A lovely card showing this lighthouse on Long Island in New York.Located on the most easterly tip of Long Island on the south fork. The lighthouse tower stands at 108 feet and overlooks The Atlantic Ocean. The Montauk Point Lighthouse was authorised to be built in 1795 by President George Washington and was completed in 1797 at a cost of $ 22, 300,00. The Montauk Hospital Society currently maintains the Lighthouse and offers tours of the lighthouse. Thank you Alessandra for this lovely card .Posted from New York 11 January 2012..Thank you.
