ISLAMORADA, FLA. (WSVN) - A project aimed at preserving the past got the green light in the Keys.
A community-based organization will be restoring the iconic Alligator Reef Lighthouse in Islamorada.
They said it’ll take five to seven years to complete and could cost up to $9 million.
The lighthouse has been standing since 1873 and used as a navigational aid to help steer ships away from the Keys coral reef chain.
