I got back a email from TED (Tucson Emergency Department)
And they refer me to a Historical Department/Society
I hope things go well time will tell.
SORRY if I had to do this again.

The building with the “Chrysler siren” was built in ~1970 post Chrysler production, and the post office used to be adjacent with the town hall on Scott & Broadway. So in total the downtown district only had one confirmed thunderbolt on top of town hall that I know of.

I find it interesting that S Houghton Rd only has ~13 of 20 sirens laid out in the yard. Wonder where the other 7 went.
