Summary

Significance: This building is one of sixteen similar buildings designed as Lieutenants' Quarters by Holabird and Roche in the late 1880's. These houses illustrate early efforts by the army to provide housing for officers and their families. Their distinctive appearance sets them apart from the officer's quarters constructed at a alter period from plans which originated in the Office of the Quartermaster General.
