Admiralty J3056; USCG 3-1090.

Original screwpile structure lost, but this light station lives on as a tower in the sea although there are reports the new tower was lost to Hurricane Charley in 2004. Current structure is listed as abandoned in the USCG Volume 3 light list as the "structure is unstable and considered unsafe." The function is replaced by a nearby lighted buoy USCG 3-1090.1
