Air Raid Siren

HOUSTON, TEXAS - APRIL 23: Houston Emergency Management director RIchard Hawkins, left, and city mechanic Swede Jacobson get ready for the final blare from the air raid siren on top of City Hall at noon, April 23, 1992. The sirens were installed in the early 1950s to warn of a nuclear attack from the Soviet Union. At the time 42 sirens were installed inside the Loop. The system cost the city $35,000 to $50,000 annually to maintain. The cost to replace and newer methods of notifying the public made the sirens obsolete.
