MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History
Little Rock, Pulaski County
The Tower Building, built in 1840, is the only surviving part of the Little Rock Arsenal. It sat empty until WPA workers renovated it in the late 1930s, and it opened in 1942 as a natural history museum. It is now the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History.
