description

Summary

Significance: Facility No. 475 is associated with the build-up of facilities at the Naval Base in the early 1940s. It is part of a group of storehouses that transformed this section of Pearl Harbor, one of the additional storage facilities built on graded and fill land at Kuahua Peninsula. This storehouse, which held the headquarters of the Naval Supply Depot, played a vital role in meeting expanded storage needs both for the base and for supply of the advance lines during WWII. It has great integrity of design, location, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. Facility No. 475 is the only six-story concrete storehouse at the base and is a contributing element to the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark.
