The
Portland Breakwater Light and part of a busy Portland
Harbor. The light, also known as "Bug
Light", was built in 1855, and went dark in 1942.

What's
left of the West Yard latrine, looking north toward
"Bug Light." Bug Light was at the end
of a 2000 foot breakwater originally. When the
West Yard was constructed, the area between the
breakwater and Cushing Point was filled in, so today
there are only a few feet of actual
"breakwater" left. Supposedly, "Bug
Light" was to have been relit soon!
