Elevating Stations: Preserving the Ocracoke Light Station Double Keepers Quarters

Join us for the November 2024 installment of the "Science on the Sound" Lecture Series at the Coastal Studies Institute on the ECU Outer Banks Campus. This monthly, in-person lecture series brings perspectives from all over the state and highlights coastal topics in northeastern North Carolina. This month, George Jaramillo, Historical Architect with the National Parks Service Outer Banks Group will present "Elevating Stations: Preserving the Ocracoke Light Station Double Keepers Quarters" on November 21, 2024, at 6:00PM. For two centuries the Ocracoke Light Station has maintained watch over the waters of Silver Lake. Today, its continued threat from stronger storms has brought the need for climate-forward adaptation preservation strategies. We explore the entanglement of history and adaptation within the site and the current strategies implemented at the Ocracoke Light Station Double Keepers Quarters. Old and new techniques are promoted for the rehabilitation of the structure providing ‘tangible interventions’ (Anderson et al, 2018) to adapt our unique maritime legacy for our changing futures. George Jaramillo is the Park Historic Architect of the Outer Banks Group. He manages the historic structures across the three park units of the Outer Banks exploring the history, architectural significance, and key adaptation strategies to preserve them for the future. With over twenty years of architecture, heritage, and design experience within the private and public sectors, he collaborates across a variety of disciplines to rethink our relationships with the built environment.
