The Harbor Lighthouse is one of the City Hotspot locations found in The Loop and is a landmark within Chicago in Watch Dogs.
History[]
Harbor Lighthouse has been a beacon to passing ships and teenagers looking for a place to make out since it was built in 1893. At the time it was considered state of the art engineering and has always been upgraded accordingly. The lens is extremely rare. So here's hoping it lasts longer than the light bulb in my bathroom.
Role[]
The lighthouse is the location where Damien Brenks finally confronts Aiden Pearce at the last mission, Sometimes You Still Lose. They have a conversation until Jordi Chin arrives, holding Aiden at gunpoint. Aiden triggers an explosion by hacking the light; he takes down Jordi and shoots Damien in slow-motion, killing him and putting an end to his revenge for his niece's death. Jordi escapes, alive.
