Brockton Point Lighthouse

Possibly one of the most photographed spots in Vancouver, there has been a lighthouse at Brockton Point since 1890.  The current tower was built in 1914, and was staffed until 1956.  In 1906 the tugboat Chehalis collided with another boat and sank a few hundred feet off the Point. Eight people perished, and their remains are still trapped inside the wreck. (1957 photograph by Fred Herzog).
