> Cove Point Lighthouse was built in 1828 to mark the shoal that extends outwards toward the shipping channel. A total of four acres was purchased at a cost of $300. Today only two acres remain (the other two were given to the liquid natural gas terminal for a safety zone). The light tower and the keeper's house were constructed of locally manufactured brick. The cost of the entire project was $2000.
> The "new" Cape Henry Lighthouse was put into service on December 15, 1881 after the old light, that sits just 360 feet west was found to be unstable. The New Cape henry Lighthouse is operated by the U.S. Coast Guard and the United States Army. The new light was built at a cost of $75,000 versus $17,700 for the old light just a hundred years before.
