Toronto Harbour Light

The Toronto Harbour Light is an automated lighthouse at Vicki Keith Point in Tommy Thompson Park in Toronto, Ontario. The concrete structure was completed in 1974 by the then Toronto Harbour Commission and operated by the Toronto Port Authority.

The lighthouse is powered by a solar panel and directs shipping traffic in Toronto Harbour.

It is one of three lighthouses in Toronto and the only active one in the city.
