Cape Elizabeth East Light was built in 1874 (along with it's "sister" west tower) as replacements of the earlier stone towers built in 1828. The light was fitted with a 2nd order Fresnel lens.
The East light is still an active beacon. The original lens was replaced in 1994 with a newer automated lens. The original Fresnel lens is now proudly displayed at the Cape Elizabeth town hall.
