Freedom Tower


Freedom Tower

The Art Deco water tower stands at the end of the Parade Grounds of Hickam AFB in Honolulu. The Tower was damaged during the attack on Pearl Harbor, but not directly by the Japanese. Bombing of the airbase broke the main water lines and the rapid loss of water caused the internal tank to collapse. In 1985 the tower was dedicated as the Freedom Tower on Hickam's 50th Anniversary
