By 1941, erosion was threatening the brick fog signal building at Big Sable Point Lighthouse, and it was decided to construct a fog signal building on stilts as shown here. Notice the large number of old cars parked in front of the brick fog signal building. These vehicles may have belonged to the workmen who were assigned to tear down the old fog signal building that was demolished that same year. (U.S. Coast Guard photo, Lighthouse Digest archives.)
