Notes
  • Significance: An example of an early 20th century barracks constructed from the standardized plans issued by the Office of the Quartermaster General of the U.S. Army. It was first used as artillery barracks and continued to house troops through World War II. In the 1960s the post museum was located in the building. The building is one of four which flank the Water Tower-Barracks complex in the center of the original post and contribute to the comprehensiveness of the historic building inventory at Fort Sheridan.
