Biloxi Lighthouse, MS

This 61-foot brick tower encased in a cast-iron sheath was built in 1848.   It is one of the most unusual lighthouses in that it sits on the median of an interstate highway (US 90).   The lighthouse was deeded to the City of Biloxi in 1968 and remains as a private aid to navigation.
