I saw them building this tower last October and wondered what it was all about.
See the details in this article. Pretty cool!

I missed that. With all I’ve read about the U. S. Lifesaving Service I had never read about the tower on Creeds Hill. I’ve watched the current owner restore the house over a number of years but your article shares a lot about his passion. Thanks for the link.

Nice article. One thing that jumped out at me was the copper flashing. My uncle, a very experienced builder, always used copper flashing on his NJ house because 'nothing else would last this close to the ocean air'.
