This benchmark is located in the center of the airport. It is about 172 feet tall. The coordinates are correct for this one as it's for the old tower, not the new one. Be sure to log this as a find here as well as on geocaching.com.
*NOTE: this is for the old control tower, not the new current one. The current one is the famous tower that's located next to the Theme Building. That current tower is not a benchmark, but the old original LAX tower is and that is what this waymark is for.
* Qualifies for Lucky 7!
