History of the Keeper's House
The Friends of Concord Point Lighthouse, partnered with the State of Maryland, City of Havre de Grace, and Harford County, have restored the original Keeper’s Dwelling to its 1884 version. The project began when the State acquired the property in 1988 and transferred it to the City.
The Friends agreed to become responsible for the restoration project. The first Maryland Historical Trust Grant was received in 1988 for stabilization of the structure. MHT grants were awarded for all subsequent phases of the project. The dwelling has also been known as the John O’Neill House, in honor of the first keeper.
