Elevator takes you 180 feet above Presque Isle Bay where you can see beyond Presque Isle State Park's forested peninsula.
Maybe you'll see a 1,000 foot lake freighter. Or maybe one of the tall ships visiting the Great Lakes. During the summer you can watch sailboat races, or just watch the sun sink into the water.
On a clear day, you can see neighboring Ontario only 45 miles to the north (of course).
Tower is only $2. Can be a bit windy up there, but you can see the entire harbor and much of the city.
Grab a quick snack on the first floor or buy a souvy. Clean restrooms are also on the ground floor. Leave a Comment Address: Dobbins Landing at the foot of State StreetDirections: Bayfront Parkway to State Street. North on State. Plenty of parking. Some spots are free. Some spots are at meters.

In 2004, Erie's Port Authority rescued the historic Erie Land Lighthouse (1867) from the neglect of the City of Erie.
The original lantern room had been transferred to another lightouse in 1899 leaving the Land Lighthouse without a top.
The new lantern room, rebuilt to near exact specifications as the original, was hoisted to the top of the lighthouse tower in 2004.
While the lighthouse is not open for tours yet, the grounds can be accessed from dawn to dusk without charge.
From the lighthouse park, visitors can enjoy sweeping views of Lake Erie and the Presque Isle State Park peninsula.
The adjacent neighborhood is in transition - but definitely on the rebound. A 100 year old paper mill (Hammermill) was recently closed and the site is in the proecess of being redeveloped. Leave a Comment Address: Foot of Lighthouse StreetDirections: From East 6th Street (US Route 5) go north on Lighthouse Street 6 blocks. Lighthouse will be on the left.

 Cozy Jerry Uht Park by James_Lawrence
The most expensive seat is only $8.00!! There's a parking garage at East 10th and French and hundreds of free spaces on the surrounding streets.
Bleachers are $5 bucks and the rest of the seats are $6. (That's right $6 bucks - which will buy you a hot dog at a major league park)
Great place to hang out after a grueling day at the beach. Leave a Comment Address: East 10th and French Streets in downtown Erie.
