The way I took it was that the fort on the island was there already (after the Morley Insurrection) and the Lighthouse was a new construct.

After the Empress's death, Burrows modernized the fort (with Sokolov technologies and Overseer music boxes) and put military touches on the Lighthouse.

However, if I misread it, then indeed the placement of the Lighthouse is an oversight. Good catch.

But I do have to agree with Piko, I think with their current level of technology, the Lighthouse couldn't have been constructed in so short a time, unless it was already planned, payed for and the pieces prebuilt. In that case commissioning could mean 'bring (something newly produced, such as a factory or machine) into working condition'.
