The German architect, Carl Leick, designed this lighthouse, the second that stood at Admiralty Head. This lighthouse was decommissioned in 1922. It remained vacant until the mid-1950s, when the Washington State Parks Commission renovated it, keeping it open until 1994, when its operation was taken over by the 1994 Washington State University Extension-Island County.

This was the last lighthouse to be composed of 18-inch thick brick walls, covered with plaster; later lighthouses utilized reinforced concrete structures. This design had Mission Revival styling.

This lighthouse's lantern was removed in 1922, and incorporated into the Dungeness Point Lighthouse, near Sequim, WA. Its last Fresnel lens has been lost.
