Aloha Tower - Hawaii Pacific University

103 Ala Moana Blvd, Honolulu, HI 96813, USA

Landmark harbor tower and flag mast that once greeted every arriving ocean liner, now Hawaii Pacific University's dormitories.

This guide to the Aloha Tower in Honolulu, now part of Hawaii Pacific University, traces the ten-story landmark architect Arthur Reynolds finished in 1926 to greet ocean liners on boat day, briefly the tallest structure in the territory. You'll hear how Coast Guardsmen defended it and crews camouflaged its walls after the Pearl Harbor attack, and how the marketplace built at its base later went bankrupt. Look up at the clock and the letters still facing the harbor.
