The Rock Island District of the US Army Corps of Engineers is proud to have its headquarters in the historic Clock Tower Building. This building, completed in 1867, has served the US Army well for 110 years. It was the first building constructed for the Rock Island Arsenal; it served as an office during the construction in 1931-34 of Locks and Dam 15, adjoining the Clock Tower; and it became the Rock Island District headquarters in 1935. The Clock Tower is on the National Register of Historic Places and we in the Corps of Engineers will continue to maintain this historic treasure for all of the people. Dr. Tweet has captured and preserved the story of this historical building in this booklet, and we are indebted to him for such an outstanding publication.
