To accomplish this, a wooden table had to be removed to expose the original mounting brackets. The table was installed to cover the hole in the floor that was left when the previous pedestal was removed. Once the table was removed, it was amazing to see that Mr. Spinella's template aligned almost perfectly.
Mr. Spinella took some additional measurements and oriented park staff to how the replica lens will work and function. From this data, Mr. Spinella will be able to begin fabrication of the replica lens.
For the rest of the project, the National Park Service and the main contractor continued to work on restoration schedules and specific needs for staging of equipment. The National Park Service expects staging of equipment, including scaffolding, to begin in January of 2024.
