Point Sur Light Station
Historic Restoration & Rehabilitation
Point Sur, CA
Point Sur Light Station is the most complete surviving nineteenth century light station complex on the Pacific Coast, and possibly in the United States. The complex contains seven buildings, constructed at varying times over the course of thirty years, beginning in 1889.

Interactive Resources was hired by the U.S. Coast Guard to evaluate the condition of the building at the site prior to determining future uses. This evaluation included a visit to the site to investigate the condition of each building’s exterior, as well as a review of the conditions of the interiors of the Assistant Keeper’s Quarters, the Keeper’s Quarters, the Blacksmith’s Shop, and the Barn.

Interactive Resources was subsequently hired by the California Department of Parks and Recreation to further document the condition of several of the Light Station’s structures and to develop restoration plans and specifications.
