The first Lamp Shop built in 1871. The engineers constructed a double-height open room with pits, ladders, and iron columns so the lampists could assemble and test even the largest size lenses and pedestals. Four two-story arched windows provided [plenty of] light….” (Vogel and Clifford 2007). Just beyond is the front of the three-story granite and red brick French Second Empire style Administration Building completed in 1871. Just to the right can be seen the buoys surrounding the flag mast on the “green.”
