U.S. Naval Base, Pearl Harbor, Winch Station, Near shore in Iriquois Point Housing Area, Pearl City, Honolulu County, HI

Significance: It was built as part of the plan to protect Pearl Harbor from submarine and torpedo attacks after WWII. The structure replaced an earlier winch station which had been part of the harbor entrance protection since 1941. Both the earlier station and this one were built to help open gates in the nets laid across the harbor entrance. This building is associated with post-WWII developments in harbor defense. The building is a contributing element to the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark.
