In 1930 crew members of a modern area U.S. Coast Guard lifeboat station posed in front of the first life saving station that had been built at the Twin Lights of Navesink. The Spermaceti Cove Lifesaving Station is the first lifesaving station built by the U.S. Lifesaving Service after it was established in 1848. The historic structure was moved up the hill to the Twin Lights in the 1950s, along with an astonishing array of lifesaving artifacts. A move is currently underway to apply for National Landmark Status for this building.
