This lighthouse birdhouse is a spot-on replica of the famous Montauk Point Light located at the easternmost point of Long Island, New York. Construction of the lighthouse was authorized by none other than President George Washington and bears the distinction of being the first public works project of the United States. The (in)famous pirate Captain Kidd is said to have buried treasure at the foot of the lighthouse, but it&lsquos yet to be found...... This red and white lighthouse is a fully functional birdhouse featuring two nest boxes with 1.25&ldquo openings (one in the lighthouse itself and one in the keeper&lsquos cottage), a removable back for yearly cleaning, drainage, ventilation and unpainted interiors. The entire structure is built upon a river stone foundation and a custom-fit mounting plate makes installation a snap!
