Shining about nine miles off the coast of Boston, the lighthouse was completed in 1905 and guided ships for over 100 years before being purchased by a brave, ambitious family who authentically restored the site, creating a uniquely historic home in the harbor.

Amazing! I've been shooting this lighthouse for 3 years and never knew any of this.

WOW an absolutely great job by Dave & Lynn and all "the hands" that helped them restore this beautiful Boston Harbor landmark!

[@bostonpreservationalliance]

We agree! Dave and Lynn, like Graves Light, are Boston treasures.

Beautiful restoration! Hope you fill in that other wedge in the rock (opposite side of the boat parking spot) with boulders. It funnels the water right at the lighthouse.

So many of us grew up looking at that magnificent protecter. And now, it is being protected. Thank you, both of you, for saving it from the ravages of time and brine.
