Description
Nestled on the side of a cliff on Victoria Beach, rests a 60-foot tower, known to many locals as the “Pirate Tower". A precarious tower enclosing a staircase, built as beach access in 1926, now closed to the public.
It was built by the family of William E. Brown, a state senator representing California’s 37th District, the rocket like structure served as a gateway to and from Brown’s home on top of the cliff.
In the 1940s, the property was sold to Harold Kendrick, a retired Naval officer from Los Angeles. Kendrick was known to regularly dress up as a pirate and hide coins in and around the tower for neighborhood kids to find. Hence, the structure’s nickname as the “Pirate Tower” of Victoria Beach.
