Artist's Description
The Coast Guard building and the adjacent 40-by-60-foot boathouse were built in 1935, tucked just inside the entrance to New Harbor. The facility was ready to operate in January 1936. A 32-by-50-foot equipment building, located a little farther inland, was added in the fall of 1938. The life-saving stations at the West Side and Sandy Point had become obsolete years earlier — and on the other side of the island at the Old Harbor station, amid protests by island fishermen, the last of the old life-saving stations was closed on July 15, 1937.
In 1981, as an ominous prelude, the Coast Guard Station’s rusting steel signal tower, used to display weather flags, was dismantled rather than repaired. Continuous marine weather forecasts had been available for several years, courtesy of the government, on a special radio frequency.
