Lighthouse in the Humber Bay Marina, Toronto

            "Now standing in Humber Bay Park in Etobicoke, this lighthouse was originally located at the East Entrance of the Toronto Harbour. 

Built in 1906, the lighthouse is a 22-foot high, wooden, square, pyramidal tower. A wooden building was built for the  alarm engineer of the lighthouse in 1909.  In 1973, the East Gap of the Toronto harbour was being widened and this lighthouse, along with another on the East side, were placed in storage. 

The abandoned lighthouses were spotted in storage and brought to Etobicoke by barge in 1981. This lighthouse was placed at the Mimco Cruising Club at the west side of Humber Bay Park.

 A concrete pad was poured for the lighthouse to stand on. In Fall of 1981, the lighthouse interior was cleaned and rebuilt. From 1982 to 1984, the Mimico Cruising Club's offices were located inside the lighthouse."
