If the photos you are referring to are from the Beach Site, thank you. But as you know our original photo gallery was shut down by hackers, I hope to have it back and running in the near future.

As for an end use for the cottage, I see that as a real hard question. Our tax dollars just can't be thrown at projects without a clear plan and as others have written, Hamilton has many under used museums. I would love to see the lighthouse brought back to it's original condition, but what is the final cost to the taxpayer many of which will never set foot on the property? Except for a few months of the year the location is far from prime, the Port put out tenders for the land around Fisherman's Pier many years ago and received no response. In my opinion the location needs more than just the lighthouse to survive on it's own.

Anyway, a few more pictures.
