Fort Kamehameha, Military fort in Honolulu, United States
Fort Kamehameha consists of five concrete coastal batteries and 33 residential buildings spread across the Pearl Harbor entrance area.
The United States Army established Fort Kamehameha in 1907 to protect Pearl Harbor, constructing major artillery installations between 1911 and 1920.
The fort received its name in 1909 to honor King Kamehameha I, replacing its original designation as Fort Upton following local community requests.
The residential structures at Fort Kamehameha face potential demolition due to their location within the accident potential zone of Honolulu International Airport.
Battery Selfridge contained eight 12-inch mortars while Battery Closson featured two 12-inch rifles with complete 360-degree firing capabilities.
