Hamilton Field, Warehouse Type B, Escolta Avenue & Fourth Street, Novato, Marin County, CA

Significance: Facility No. 412 was the first warehouse constructed on base to serve the Quartermaster post exchange. In 1960 it was used as a Supply and Equipment Warehouse. By 1966 this building functioned variously as a wing headquarters and an administration facility for commercial transfer operations. This building is an example of the application of an important architectural trend (Spanish Colonial Revival) adapted to reflect California's Mission heritage in a departure from traditional military architecture.
