Cape Florida Lighthouse Description
Cape Florida Lighthouse is Dade County's oldest structure. The first Cape Florida lighthouse was built at the southern tip of Key Biscayne and was destroyed in 1836 during a Seminole attack. The present tower, dating from 1847, was reinforced by George G. Meade in 1855.

In 1992, Hurricane Andrew flattened everything in the area except the lighthouse.
