| View of original structure from early to mid-1920s. Note the “C” is missing off the north wall (damage following 1926 Hurricane?). This would be prior to 1928 Okeechobee Hurricane which caused the tower’s collapse and significant damage to structure. |
Worth noting. Every moment of every day is made possible by Lake Okeechobee and the Herbert Hoover Dike and everyone needs to remember what happened on September 16th, 1928.
