Notes	The point on which the lighthouse is built was the site of a treaty meeting between Governor Isaac Stevens and the Indians in 1856. The site was established as a light station in 1906. Mukilteo is the sole remaining of several structures of similar type constructed in the area. The structure consists of a tower and connected engine house, both of which are frame construction, an unusual feature since most lighthouses are built of concrete, brick or stone. The tower base is square, twenty feet on a side, and rises one story to a decorative parallel band. There are 2 1/2 story wood-frame keeper dwellings adjacent to the light which are contemporary and of a design which was used by the Lighthouse Service frequently at this period. It is now operated as museum by the Mukilteo Historical Society.
