The English Tower was not always known as such. Before 1902, it was aptly called “the White Tower.” It served as both a military watchtower and a fire tower during its existence.

The English Tower was not known as such until the 20th century. Previously, it was better known as the White Tower. This is a strong point that can be appreciated by running past it.
