Faro de Punta Higuero, Punta Higuero, Centro Puntas, Rincon Municipio, PR

Significance: In 1892 the original light was built as a fixed white 6th order station with a 6 mile range light beam. It was a singular piece of design and construction similar to Guanica Light. The most striking feature was the peculiar use of materials in the facades and tower. The light, as a result of the 1918 quake, was rebuilt in 1921 but demolished by the U.S.C.G. in 1922.
