A lighthouse at Point Montara is shown in Montara, Calif., Wednesday, June 4, 2008. According to lighthouse researchers, this lighthouse was first erected in 1881 overlooking Wellfleet Harbor in Wellfleet, Mass. and had been moved by the Coast Guard from Wellfleet to Yerba Buena, Calif., and eventually to Point Montara.

It seems this lighthouse disappeared and no one knew where it went after it left Wellfleet. It turns out that this is the lighthouse about 300m south of my house, very interesting. Thanks for the tip David.
