Fort David A. Russell, Artillery Barracks, Randall Avenue between Sixth & Fifth Streets, Cheyenne, Laramie County, WY

Significance: The Artillery Barracks were constructed in 1903-04 to house some 120 enlisted men for the Army's Artillery Corps. Identical with the barracks building immediately west, this was one of many large-scale buildings built as part of an extensive construction program at Fort David A. Russell around the turn of the century. The Artillery Barracks are a typically configured masonry building, one of a long series of brick and frame enlisted men's dormitories situated along Randall Avenue. With its red brick walls, white trim, and symmetrical facade with full-width colonnade and front pediment, the building typifies the modified Colonial Revival architectural style widely used by the Army's Quartermaster General's office.
