If You’ve Always Wanted a Lighthouse, Here’s Your Chance. U.S. Is Giving Some AwayLuke Barrett—General Services Administration/APBOSTON — Ten lighthouses that for generations have stood like sentinels along America’s shorelines protecting mariners from peril and guiding them to safety are being given away at no cost or sold at auction by the federal government.
Yet the public remains fascinated by the beacons, which are popular tourist attractions and the subject of countless photographers and artists. This year, six lighthouses are being offered at no cost to federal, state or local government agencies, nonprofits, educational organizations or other entities that are willing to maintain and preserve them and make them publicly available for educational, recreational or cultural purposes.
“Warwick Neck is really at quite a prominent location up on a cliff overlooking Narragansett Bay,” he said. “That’s probably one that I would say that has a real ‘Wow’ factor when you get out and look at it.”
