Aloha Tower is probably the most famous architectural landmark in Honolulu. It was designed by Arthur Reynolds in Art Deco style. It is listed on the State and National Registers because of its association with the development of Hawaii as a tourist destination for travelers from the mainland, and for its role as a harbor-control tower during WWII. It is as an example of 1920s Art Deco architecture in Honolulu.
