The 80-foot (23.4 meter) tall North Attleboro Fire Tower at World War I Memorial Park in North Attleboro, Massachusetts, tops out at an elevation of 470 feet. Though the tower is surrounded by a chain link fence capped by barbed wire to prevent direct access, the area is easy to visit by driving to the adjacent parking lot which is three-quarters around the park's one way loop road.
