My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.The first light on Digby Pier was established in 1887. This 9 meter (29 ft) tall lighthouse, which dates from 1903, was originally located on Digby Pier in Nova Scotia. After the Digby ferry terminal was relocated in 1971, the Lighthouse was decommissioned and in the 1970s, the tower was moved to the Saint John Coast Guard base, New Brunswick. In 1983, the tower was moved approximately one hundred feet and given to the city of Saint John, New Brunswick.Digby Pier Lighthouse was given a major facelift in July, 2010. The tower, which houses an inactive drum dioptric lens, saw several uses over the years, mostly as an information or ticket-selling kiosk. In 2012, it was time Saint John gave the lighthouse back. The lantern room was removed and the five-ton lighthouse was lifted off its foundation and placed atop a flatbed trailer in preparation for its trip across the bay aboard the ferry.Work on the new breakwater was to begin in January 2013, and the plan was to place the renovated Digby Pier Lighthouse on the breakwater when it was completed. On June 21, 2016, cranes lifted the lighthouse atop a prepared cement foundation. The lantern room was returned to the lighthouse, and the structure was shingled and painted in time for a re-dedication on July 23. |
