The United States is giving away or auctioning off several lighthouses throughout the country and one of those historic landmarks is right here in Michigan.
This year, six lighthouses are being offered at no cost to federal, state or local government agencies, nonprofits, educational groups or other entities that are willing to maintain and preserve them.
BOSTON (AP) Ten lighthouses that for generations have stood like sentinels along America’s shorelines protecting mariners from peril and guiding them to safety are.
As part of an annual effort, the General Services Administration is offloading six lighthouses this year to eligible groups that promise to maintain them. The rest including one in Cleveland will be auctioned off to the public.
