Crater Lake Administrative Complex, Administration Building, Munson Valley, Rim Drive off State Highway 62, Klamath Falls, Klamath County, OR
Summary
Significance: NPS Landscape Architect Francis G. Lange described the Administration Building in his final field report for 1935 as "one of the most attractive structures of its kind in any of our national parks." It is the keystone of the group of rustic stone structures built at Crater Lake's administrative headquarters from 1926-1935, exemplifying in its use of native materials, colors and forms that harmonize with its environment, the principles of the rustic style of park architecture developed by the NPS' San Francisco Branch of Plans and Designs.
