description

Summary

Significance: This building is one of thirteen similar brick buildings designed as Captain's Quarters by Holabird and Roche in the late 1880s. These houses illustrate early efforts by the Army to provide housing for officers and their families. Their distinctive appearance sets them apart from the officer's quarters constructed at a later period from plans which originated in the Office of the Quartermaster General.
