The Grand River (Fairport Harbor) Light is located in the village of Fairport Harbor Ohio. The lighthouse was built in 1871 and has a 60 foot tower with a detached keeper’s house. The light was decommissioned in 1925 replaced by the Fairport Harbor West Breakwater Light. At one time the Coast guard considered using the keeper’s house to house their personnel and demolish the tower but a letter writing campaign by local residents prevented it from happening.
