    Oldest gas lit light house in US, cool!
    Scott W.

    We passed this lighthouse on the way to Niagara Falls and had to turn back to see what it was all about. Currently (May 2024), the lighthouse is closed for structural repairs; regardless, you can still get a great view of it from the road. At one time this town was called Portland Harbor but changed the name to Barcelona in the early 1800's. The lighthouse happens to be one of the oldest oil-lite lighthouses still standing from the 1800's; however, transitioned to natural gas in 1831, making it the oldest natural gas lit light house in the U.S., and the world, pretty cool! It's a bummer we couldn't go inside or get a closer view, but it's remarkable that it's still around today, 5-stars because old things especially lighthouse's rule!

    ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! The lighthouse was closed due to some fixing that needed to be done, but the location and the little park along Lake Erie is a definite stop when you are in the area. I highly recommend you stopping by and checking it out. Free to walk around and look around. Not sure what the lighthouse fee might be since it was closed. It sits along side the lake near a marina area...gorgeous views of lake erie

    Who doesn't love a lighthouse? Soon to be under renovation for public access according to workers, this lighthouse stands as a historic marker for the town of Westfield, NY. The lighthouse was built in 1829 at a height of 40 feet and a cost of $3,456.78. Its use as a lighthouse was short lived as it was decommissioned 30 years later in1859. FINAL THOUGHTS Definitely one of the most unique lighthouses I've ever visited an one of the first I had privilege of visiting on Lake Erie. We often think of lighthouses only on ocean shores and forget the Great Lakes are so enormous they can often have both the look and feel of an ocean. It's a beautiful drive along the lakefront, so get out and enjoy!

    Frank Lloyd Wright's Graycliff - Living room

    The last time I toured Graycliff it was almost 10 years ago and the house was under significant…read morerenovations. When I went back today for the tour, I was impressed to see every room restored! Our tour group only had 4 people total and took us about an hour and 20 mins to go through both floors of the house, and view the grounds. We really enjoyed everything, especially our knowledgeable tour guide and friendly gift shop attendant, Hannah! We'd love to come back again for a special event once the new visitor center opens in February.

    I've never been to this museum, but still think a museum membership here is an amazing deal…read more Then why post a review... Reciprocal benefits. This has been one of the most useful museum passes that we have ever purchased. The card allows admission to over a thousand museums, art galleries, historic homes, including Frank Lloyd Wright masterpieces, and cultural centers both in the US and abroad. The Martins Pass is a fantastic deal at $100 for 2 adults and children under 18 in a household. It includes five reciprocal benefit programs: the Time Travelers Reciprocal Program, the Empire State Museums Reciprocal Program, the Frank Lloyd Wright National Reciprocal Sites Membership Program, the North American Reciprocal Museums Program (NARM) and the Reciprocal Organization of Associated Museums Program (ROAM). They also have occasional discounts off their membership passes. Some of the museums that we have visited via the North American Reciprocal Museum Association (NARM) include, but are definitely not limited to, the Royal BC Museum in Victoria, Canada, the High Museum and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta, Georgia, the Richard Driehaus Museum in Chicago, and the Cabildo, the Beauregard-Keyes House and Presbytere in New Orleans. The ROAM (Reciprocal Organization of Associated Museums) has also been useful. Favorite museums include the Atlanta History Center and Swan House in Atlanta, the New Orleans Museum of Art and the Sculpture Garden, and the Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. The Oscar statuettes for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are so cute. Nice to be able to visit The Guggenheim in Manhattan by reserving online with the FLW benefits. We've also been able to visit the grand mansions in Newport, the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, and the Honolulu Museum of Art. The Asian Art Museum in San Francisco houses one of the most comprehensive collections of Asian art in the world. Simply stunning. And of course, the annual pass will give you unlimited access to Graycliff. Found this museum and museum pass while looking at museums near Buffalo, NY, for my friend Linda M. Make a donation at the museum or buy a souvenir at the gift shop. Special thanks to Ryan in the museum membership office. It has been a great membership for our family and a nice gift for our friends.
