We prepared the lighthouse, the two keeper's quarters, and the oil storage shed for the transition by planning the transport process and constructing temporary roadbeds. We transported the structures to the new site, installed new foundation systems, and conducted the final placement and anchoring at the new location in Port St. Joe. Our work also included the restoration of existing landscape and finishes, and the restoration and infill at the existing site. The 12.3 miles the lighthouse traveled was the longest move of an intact lighthouse in the U.S.

Preble-Rish Inc., acquired by Dewberry in 2016, performed this work.
