One high light
You can't tell at this zoom level, but we're looking at the tallest lighthouse in the United States. Standing over 200 feet from base to top and boasting a distinctive candy-stripe paint pattern, the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse used to rise just a few paces from the beachy shores of the Outer Banks. But in 1999, it had to be relocated from the unstable sands. Now set 1,500 feet inland, this still-operational North Carolina icon is one of the tallest structures ever moved.
