	Built in 1943 on the ramparts of Fort Andrews (1776), this three-story Fire Control Station was built for Battery 208 at [[Fourth Cliff MR]] and Gun-Group 1. It was the most southern station for the [[:Category:Harbor Defenses of Boston\|Harbor Defenses of Boston]]. It was located on a 4.5-acre plot owned by the Coast Guard and was designated Location 111. The station is a strange design with two observation levels separated by a floor with large rectangular windows. The rear section of the structure consisted of the entrance and a generator. (More likely it was the Gun-Group 1 Commanders post). The station was stripped of all its equipment immediately after WW2. A Pilgrim Atomic power plant siren was installed on the station in 1980. The station was demolished in November 1998 due to its poor condition. Today there are no remains and most of the rampart the tower was located on has eroded away.
