description

Summary

Significance: They are located within the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark. They are integral parts of Dry Dock No. 4, the largest dry dock at Pearl Harbor, capable of accepting CVN class ships. Dry Dock No. 4 and its quay walls were built at the time of intense military build-up following the bombing of Pearl Harbor and are significant through their association with the expansion of the dry dock facilities during WWII. Construction of the quay walls and the dry dock is an example of the cooperation between CPNAB and Pacific Bridge Co. contractors.
