Summary

Description
English: The Little Red Lighthouse, officially Jeffrey's Hook Light, is a small lighthouse in Fort Washington Park on the Hudson River in New York City, under the George Washington Bridge. It was made famous by the 1942 children's book The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge by Hildegarde Swift, illustrated by Lynd Ward. The lighthouse stands on Jeffrey’s Hook, a small point of land that supports the base of the eastern pier of the bridge, which connects the Washington Heights neighborhood in Manhattan to Fort Lee, New Jersey.
