"Built in 1904 for the St. Louis World's Fair, this unusual light was purchased by the government and shipped to Hillsboro Inlet near Pompano Beach, Florida. It has weathered many severe hurricanes due to it's sturdy skeletal construction. A curtain was installed on the landward side after it was discovered that the sunlight concentrated through its powerful lens, was starting brush fires on the ground."
