British Officers' Quarters Complex, Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, VI

Significance: The ruins of the British Officers' Quarters Complex are a significant component of the British military fortifications on Hassel Island built during the Napoleonic War era (1793-1815). The quarters were listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1978 as part of the Northern Hassel Island Historic District. The district was listed under NRHP Criteria A and C in the areas of Archaeology-Historic, Architecture, Commerce, Engineering, Industry, Military, and Transportation. The quarters were built during the first British occupation of St. Thomas from 1801-1802 and then renovated and expanded for the second occupation from 1807-1815.
