Talk:Cape Hatteras Lighthouse

message: I changed the first paragraph to include information about why the lighthouse was built in the first place.  I took out the height that was given (193 feet, 2 inches) because it didn't match the information on the National Parks page (http://www.nps.gov/caha/lh.htm).  I also added a timeline that shows the various changes that have occurred with the lighthouse, and I added a list of  facts in a new "Description" section.  I realize that some of my information overlaps with the existing text.  I'd like to clean this up a bit, but I just didn't have time yet.  -- Kam Tonnes 03:18, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: That other height appears to be (perhaps historical) "height above mean high water mark" of the light itself, not that of the tower. It's now 191 feet. --Dhartung | Talk 13:57, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The first sentence of this section read:
"In 1999, with the sea again encroaching, the Cape Hatteras lighthouse had to be moved from its original location at the edge of the ocean to safer ground 2,900 feet (880 m) inland, and 1,500 feet (460 m) from the shoreline."
"Inland" and "from the shoreline" are redundant. I reworded this sentence to be more accurate.
I also added information about the additional support buildings that were moved.
And I moved a sentence to make the flow of information more logical.
