Bloch Arena

224 A Ave

Honolulu, HI 96818

Opened: August 1, 1941

Bloch Center (including the Arena) opened at the Pearl Harbor Navy Yard in Hawaii in August of 1941. It was built for the recreation of the servicemen of the United States Fleet stationed at Pearl Harbor. There they could drink beer, play billiards or pool, and meet friends who were stationed on other ships. It was named for Admiral Claude Charles Bloch. Admiral Bloch, a graduate of the United States Naval Academy in 1899, had served as the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Fleet from 1938 to January 6, 1940. He was in command of the local Naval District at Pearl Harbor at the time of the attack.

The Arena is an elongated octagonal structure with a hardwood flooring surrounded by bleacher style seating, much like a large gymnasium. The entire structure has open windows at the top and vented walls just below, with the actual floor beneath ground level. The serviceman also attended boxing matches, movies and other competitive events held there.
