If you're sailing on Lake Ontario this lighthouse will let you know where Nicholson Point is.
Until the mid 20th century this part of Lake Ontario saw a lot of commercial ships as they plied their way to the ports of Bath and Kingston, which are on either side of Nicholson Point. There is still the occasional cargo boat servicing the nearby industrial parks but teh vast majority of traffic are pleasure craft or sailboats racing in local or international regattas (Kingston hosts CORK which is an international competition and Olympic qualifier).
This lighthouse is still operational.
