description

Summary

Significance: This building is stylistically reminiscent of stables constructed by the U.S. Cavalry at earlier military reservations throughout the West, which were in turn inspired by the stable architecture of the Spanish presidio during colonial times. The additions built during 1942 are evident, but they reflect the construction occurring in preparation for the war effort and do not significantly alter the original appearance of the building.
Survey number: HABS CA-2398-AI
