Tower #3
Topsail Island, North Carolina

One of several towers built by the US Navy for the design and testing of experimental ramjet missiles during World War II (also known as Operation Bumblebee). This tower was remodeled into a residence in the 1950’s, though the additions were destroyed by a storm in 1996.
