  Sugar Land, Texas - Remembrance Tower

  A concrete flag structure serves as a gateway to the tower on an island. The tower is a pentagon shape with vertical and horizontal openings for sun rays to shine through. Each tower wall represents a military branch. There is an opening to walk inside for reflection and names of fallen soldiers of the area engraved on the tower wall of the military branch they served.
