On a narrow stretch of land between two deep ravines stand the North Point Lighthouse and Keeper's Quarters. The original (1855) structures were endangered and abandoned when the bluff collapsed; new structures were established 100 feet to their west in 1888. In order to beam over growing park trees, the lighthouse was heightened in 1912. In 1984, the North Point Light Station was entered on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2007, with funding from North Point Lighthouse Friends, the keeper's quarters were restored and opened to the public.
