[edit] History
The Baker Range Front Light was discontinued in 1924 and a new steel tower was built. The original lighthouse was removed or destroyed and the new tower is an active aid to navigation.
There was a Baker Shoal Range Rear Light that originally served as the Port Penn-Reedy Island Range Light. It became the Baker Shoal Rear Range Light in 1904 when the old range was discontinued due to the C&D channel moving.
