U.S. Naval Base, Pearl Harbor, Dry Dock No. 1, Latrine, Sixth Street, adjacent to Dry Dock No. 1, Pearl City, Honolulu County, HI
Summary
Significance: It is part of the Naval Shipyard within the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark. The construction of this latrine is associated with the expansion of shipyard facilities in the late 1930s in anticipation of war. Its construction was necessitated by the increased use of Dry Dock No. 1, and it is similar in style to other waterfront support facilities constructed during this period. Its simplified Art Deco design is representative of a distinct period of construction common to Federal buildings constructed during the Franklin Roosevelt administration's New Deal era.
