description

Summary

Significance: This red brick barracks, facing on the parade ground along the south side of Stanley Road, is the principal structure within a small grouping of related buildings, including latrine and mess hall, located to the rear of the barracks. The building is one of four identical barracks constructed in the first decade of the twentieth century as part of the Fort Sam Houston Calvary Post Development. All the structures in the complex, built from standardized plans from the Office of the Quartermaster General of the U.S. Army, are virtually unchanged on the exterior and are of compatible materials and design. As a whole, they provide and excellent example of turn-of-the-century military post design.
