Tower Interior

The spiral stairs have a hand railing on each side of the stairs, but only very few balusters every so often. The stair treads are small and tight for single person use only, hence you would not have had multiple keepers performing multiple duties in this light at a time.

The tower has some interior bracing supports that mount to the concrete floor and extend to the top lantern. The braces extend out from the tower walls approximately 8 inches and the stairway conforms to this diameter as it goes upward. There are four of these interior braces.
