Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a record of events and considerations that went into the decision of whether to relocate the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and associated structures from their original location. The lighthouse had been eroding closer and closer to the ocean due to coastal processes, and a decision had to be made on how to preserve it. Ultimately, the decision was made to move the lighthouse and its accompanying structures back from the shoreline, a distance of about 1000 feet. The book is full of details regarding the planning of the move, the engineering challenges that had to be overcome, and the environmental impact of the move. It also discusses the historical significance of the lighthouse and the importance of preserving it for future generations. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in lighthouses, coastal engineering, or historic preservation. It is also a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, one of the most iconic landmarks on the Outer Banks.
