Summary

Significance: It is associated with the establishment of Naval Air Station facilities on Ford Island in the 1920s. It reflects the Navy's use of seaplanes during this era of early aviation. Facility No. S360, constructed in 1922, is the oldest extant seaplane ramp on Ford Island. Facility No. S360 received damage during the Japanese attack of December 7, 1941, as the hangars and planes targeted in the attack were situated near it and on it. It is a contributing property to the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark.
