Abstract
Renata Jadresin Milic, Regan Potangaroa and Sam Smith report that February 2024 marked one year since Auckland and Aotearoa lost the Colonial Ammunition Company Shot Tower at Mt Eden.
Built about 1916, it was the only 20th century shot tower in Australasia and the last shot tower standing in Aotearoa New Zealand. Believed to be the only steel-framed tower of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere and unlike the brick towers in Australia and other parts of the world, it was a rare example internationally to have been built using steel-framed construction.
