  • Significance: It is a contributing resource to the Pearl Harbor National Historic Landmark. Built as the paint and oil storehouse during WWI, Facility 27 is significant for its association with the early naval base history at Pearl Harbor. The structure utilized new technology to make the facility secure and fire resistant. Its expansion in 1940 was a direct result of the demand for increased storage space during WWII. Facility 27 is grouped with adjacent two-story Facility 90, the second storehouse for this purpose in the shipyard. These uniquely constructed facilities are the only facilities of this type in the shipyard and are of high integrity. Since its construction in 1919, Facility 27 has been continuously utilized as a storage facility for hazardous materials for the Navy.
