Summary
Significance: The Attendant's Quarters Annex is associated with an early program of expansion at the Aspinwall Veteran's Hospital facility. The construction of new quarters for attendants in 1932 is indicative of the increased demand placed upon the hospital during the late 1920s.
The Attendant's Quarters Annex is significant for its associations with the Veterans' Bureau's efforts to expand its medical facilities during the 1920s and is representative of the first period of expansion and new construction undertaken at the Aspinwall facility in the early 1930s.
