Site assessment reveals significant challenges ahead

In early 2024, CILF and the Town agreed to jointly fund a detailed restoration plan produced by HBA with proposed phases and associated budgets. This past spring HBA conducted site investigations of Curtis Island’s five structures, including technical analyses of wood, metals, mortar, paint and other historic building materials.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the Curtis Island Lighthouse Foundation (CILF) — a community effort to fully restore and preserve the Curtis Island Light Station, to document its history, and to establish educational programs and materials.
