Martin Nally began to restore lighthouses in 1994. says. "They're subjected to very, very harsh forces of nature." But the lighthouse on Bakers Island "was the worst one I'd ever seen," she comments. "I could almost stick my arm all the way through a massive crack to the inside. "I knew I had to find a really good mason," Levy recounts. "We evaluated a number of proposals. Marty impressed us." Once chosen, he got to work, taking out pieces of stone, and as he put them back in, re-mortaring them and blowing out all the sand with compressed air. The structure was solid anew. "We then worked with Marty for a number of years," Levy says. "We were always happy when he got involved. We knew we'd have somebody who'd get the job done right." Nally in fact coaxed life back into about a dozen lighthouses for the Coast Guard—from Brant Point Light on Nantucket to Point Judith Lighthouse in Rhode Island—and another dozen or so for other organizations. He still goes back to do touch-ups here and there for new owners. He has loved the work.
