Split rock light house

HISTORIC SPLIT ROCK LIGHTHOUSE

Two Harbors, MN

This lighthouse is one Minnesota Historical Society’s top tourist attractions. Repair work on these buildings started in the early spring resulting in a daily battle with weather conditions. AMR also made special accommodations so the site could remain open for daily visitors. The interior brick had to be custom made with 7 color matches attempted before the glazing was approved. While working above Lake Superior extra care was taken to ensure all debris was contained.
