Built in 1896 and Restored in 1981
By the end of the 19th century, the United States government
obtained a plot of land along the Sea Girt shoreline to build
a lighthouse. The Sea Girt lighthouse, an L-shaped brick
house with a central tower was erected and marked the inlet
leading to the Wreck Pond. It also hosted the first radio
beacon mounted in a shore installation in the United States.
This lighthouse was the last shore lighthouse with an
integral keeper's residence built on the east coast of the
United States. In 1955 the light was decommissioned
and subsequently purchased and maintained by the
Borough of Sea Girt until 1981.
