Description

A photographic record was made of the remains of the former United States Naval Communications Base. The extant structures amount to the transmitter building for the main mast and concrete foundations and cable tracks. These structures are all that remains of the plethora of antenna arrays of differing geometries and phases of construction that once covered the site. <1>
