In Atlantic City, New Jersey
Two windows at the Absecon Lighthouse, a stone’s throw from the Atlantic City’s boardwalk and casinos. Strange that the Absecon Lighthouse is not actually located in Absecon, NJ. It’s almost 10 miles away.
Other nerdy facts: At 171 feet, this one is the tallest lighthouse in New Jersey and the fourth tallest in the U.S. The smallest lighthouse in the country is Pocahontas Light, near Portland Maine in Casco Bay, at just six feet tall. The tallest is the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse at 210 feet tall.
