Oswego Breakwater Expansion Ends With One Outer Build
In 1870 Oswego expanded port facilities with plans for two outer breakwaters but only the west outer breakwater was completed. The inner breakwater extended north from Oswego Lighthouse adding a unique wooden tower beacon at its end. A cable trolley carried a light to the tower eliminating the keeper’s need to venture to the breakwater in storms.
