Going from the first landing upward via the spiral stairway you come to the watch room through an opening in the floor. The watch room is 9 feet 5 inches in diameter approximately. Its floor covers the entire landing. A railing with no balusters is present. The floor is a solid wood tongue and groove floor and the interior walls and ceiling appear to be metal mesh and plaster. Some damage has occurred in this room over time. A portion of the floor is starting to rot. There are two port hole windows in this room. According to the National Register Application, this room held fog signal equipment from the 1920s until 1997 and the hole in the side of the tower was patched back up after it was removed.
