Fort Sam Houston, Band Quarters, Infantry Post Road, San Antonio, Bexar County, TX

description

Summary

Significance: The Band Barracks, one of the last completed buildings in the area now referred to as Infantry Post, provided separate quarters for the Fort Sam Houston Band (previously housed in the center of Sallyport structure at the east end of the Post). Built in 1893, the band quarters was compatible in materials and scale to others on post, yet distinctive in its own design. Its presence adds to the comprehensiveness of the late 19th-century building stock at Fort Sam Houston.

Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-183

Survey number: HABS TX-3303-10

National Register of Historic Places NRIS Number: 75001950

Shipbuilding. "Liberty" ships. This maze of rolling cranes, at a large Eastern shipyard is a typical scene in many large shipyards at work on ships for Uncle Sam's Navy and merchant fleet. Stocks of material are piled up for the cranes to take to vessels under construction so there is no delay in production while waiting for sections or materials. All parts are prefabricated in this huge Eastern plant which formerly turned out freight cars. The completed sections are then carried six miles to the ways on flat cars.
