| Boston Light is a lighthouse located on Little Brewster Island in outer Boston Harbor, Massachusetts. The first lighthouse to be built
 on the site dates back to 1716, and was the first lighthouse to be
 built in what is now the United States. The current lighthouse dates
 from 1783, is the second oldest working lighthouse in the US (after
 Sandy Hook Lighthouse in New Jersey), and was the only lighthouse to
 still be actively staffed by the United States Coast Guard, being
 automated in 1998 though there are still volunteer keepers acting as
 tour guides]. The structure was designated a National Historic
 Landmark in 1964. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Light)
