The idea for the tower was first proposed during 1900, but the
project took some time to come to fruition, as the committee
had difficulties raising the money by public subscription.
Chief Justice, Sir Samuel Way, laid the foundation stone on 3
December 1900 (100 years after the sighting and naming by
Grant) but it was 18 months before enough money had been
raised to call for tenders. The official opening, on 27 April
1904, was also performed by Sir Samuel Way.
