The Seeing the Light web site (visit link) has some excellent information on the history of this lighthouse. There used to be a catwalk leading out to the lighthouse and there also used to be a foghorn building, both of which were removed over 40 years ago.

According to Wikipedia, it was declared "excess" in June of 2008 by the Coast Guard.
