The Aloha Tower is a lighthouse that is considered one of the landmarks of the state of Hawaii in the United States.
It opened on September 11, 1926, at a then astronomical cost of $160,000. The Aloha Tower is at Pier 9 of Honolulu Harbor.
It has and continues to be a guiding beacon welcoming vessels to the City and County of Honolulu.
Just as the Statue of Liberty greeted hundreds of thousands of immigrants to New York City each year, the Aloha Tower greeted hundreds of thousands of immigrants to Honolulu.
At ten stories and 184 feet (56 m) of height, topped with 40 feet (12 m) of flag mast, the Aloha Tower was the tallest structure in Hawaii for four decades.
Built-in the Hawaiian Gothic architectural style.
