The 1862 brownstone fortress
1862
Navesink Twin Lights, Highlands
Joseph Lederle's rebuild replaced the 1828 original towers with the brownstone-and-keeper's-quarters compound that still crowns the town. Two towers, connected by a masonry central range, built to last a war and then a century past it.
