Sandy Hook National Gateway Recreation Area Lighthouse during morning sunrise.
The site of a number of fortifications since the American Revolution, Sandy Hook New Jersey became the home of Fort Hancock in 1899, with the completion of the first thirty-four buildings, including eighteen Georgian Revival style homes for officers and their families. Fort Hancock was armed with the most sophisticated weaponry of the day.
The porches shown in the photo being held up by temporary bracing was necessary due to severe damage suffered from super storm (hurricane) sandy.
