    The Iowan History letter Vol. 5 Number 2 Second Quarter, 2016 The Concrete Initially Fort Drum was planned as a mine control and mine casemate station. However, due to inadequate de- fenses in the area, a plan was devised to level the island, and then build a concrete structure on top of it armed with Battleship two twin 12-inch guns. This was submitted to the War Department, which decided to change the 12-inch guns to 14-inch guns mounted on twin armored turrets. The forward turret, with a traverse of 230°, was mounted on the forward portion of the top deck, which was 9 ft below the top deck; the rear turret, with a full 360° traverse, was mounted on the top deck. The guns of both turrets were capable of 15° elevation, giving them a range of 19,200 yards. Secondary armament was to be provided by two pairs of 6-inch guns mounted in armored casemates on either side of the main structure. There were two 3-inch mobile AA guns on “spider” mounts for anti-aircraft de- fense.

Original Use: Industrial buildings; oil tanks B4. Present Use: Office building; industrial support building; oil tanks *B5. Architectural Style: Classical Revival; Mid-Century Modern; Utilitarian *B6. Construction History: (Construction date, alteration, and date of alterations) Although building permits related to the subject site are limited, the following construction history is informed by available aerial photographs. The original oil terminal on this site, the Rio Grande Oil Terminal, was constructed in 1929, and included nine oil tanks, a wharf facility, and a series of gabled brick buildings both south and east of the tank grouping that supported the terminal’s operations. Aerial photographs reveal that between 1953 and 1956, four additional tanks were constructed within the fenced tank grouping. The original volume of the administration building on the site, near the current-day Pier B Street, and the gabled support building at the southern edge of the site were also constructed during this period. A second building along the southern edge of the site was built between 1972 and 1980, as was a metal- clad building south of the tank grouping. Building alterations associated with the c.1970-era expansion of the administration building appear to have included an eastern addition to the building, and extensions of the north and south façades to accommodate a new entrance and windows.

  • Forward by Byron R. Mayo, Nov. 7, 2012 I Idolize
    Forward by Byron R. Mayo, Nov. 7, 2012 I idolize my father. It was inevitable. I suspect every kid given half a chance will put his dad on a pedestal. I know many kids never got that chance and I feel all the more fortunate for having the relationship I did with him. He wasn't perfect by any means, but his flaws were too few to keep me from making him my hero. I feel like he opened the doors to the world for me and invited me to do anything and be anyone I wanted. Most of my own memories start about age 5 when he started teaching me to play chess and buying me science kits monthly, both things that opened doors and started journeys that became my life for which I forever thank him. Everyone who knew him thought him utterly charming. But he was a very quiet, very private man and as we grew older I realized just how little I really knew of him. Dad's memoires were begun in his retirement at the age of 74 in 1996 and arrived in the mail chapter by chapter as a serial novel over several years. Dad's creative energy was boundless and he very generously took up this project at my urging so I could know him better. It should be noted that at the same time, Dad was writing and editing the VOMPC Petanque Times for the Sonoma club and game that became his second family and passion in retirement. What started out as an intended 6 chapter life story became 17 chapters that cover the period from 1922 to 1943.
