I. W. P. Lewis
Isaiah William Penn Lewis was an American lighthouse designer, builder, and engineer.
He was a nephew of Winslow Lewis, and was often critical of his uncle's work.[1]
I.W.P. Lewis traveled to Europe to study European lighthouse design, and incorporated the lessons he learned into his work. He built a handful of pile lighthouses, most of which were in the Florida Keys.
In 1843 he made a report to Congress on the lighthouses in the country.[2]
