Manning Memorial Lighthouse or Manning Light is a lighthouse located near Empire, Michigan.[1] Mr. Manning was a longtime resident of Empire. Manning enjoyed fishing offshore, and often returned from these boat trips late at night. He often remarked to friends and relatives he wished a lighthouse was in the area to aid that navigation. After his death in 1989, friends and relatives raised funds to build the lighthouse as a memorial. The lighthouse was illuminated in 1990.[3][4] It is the second newest lighthouse in Michigan—the newest being the Tri-Centennial Light of Detroit[5] -- and one of three memorial lights in Michigan.[6] Another is the William Livingtone Memorial Light.[5] ReplicaA scaled-down replica of this light was built on Lake Havasu at Lake Havasu City, Arizona.[7] The {{convert|20|ft|m|adj=on}} high replica is in Mohave County, Arizona. It was dedicated on February 2, 2003, sponsored by Crazyhorse Campgrounds, and built by members and supporters of the Lake Havasu Lighthouse Club. It is at GPS: 34°28.24′N - 114°21.72′W. The rotating amber beacon flashes at a rate of sixty times a minute.[7][8] See also List of lighthouses in the United States.
