History of the Burlington Canal Front Range Lighthouse

This light is much more modern that its rear range counterpart, the Burlington Canal Light.

Directions: Heading north along the QEW (Queen Elizabeth Way) towards Burlington, Ontario, exit at Eastport Drive (exit 93). At the end of the ramp, make a right onto Eastport Drive. Less than a quarter of a mile up the road was the Burlington Main Lighthouse just to the left of the canal bridge. Just before the Burlington Canal bridge, there is a sandy spot to pull of the road to get a decent mid-range shot. You can walk up to the top of a little hill to get a shot over the trees and part of the bridge in the picture. Also from this spot you can get a good shot of the Burlington Canal Front Range Light out on the pier.
