Summary

Significance: Building 1471 is one of only five remaining ordnance-related structures which date from the original 1920's construction of Ogden Arsenal. This standard ammunitions magazine provides particularly vivid images of the processes involved in the manufacture and storage of munitions at Ogden Arsenal. This building, along with other structures at the base, renders a unique picture of the U.S. Army build-up which occurred on the eve of and during World War II.
Survey number: HAER UT-84-AB
