Notes |
The winning competition design for the Mountain Branch by New York architect Joseph H. Freedlander incorporated the latest ideas of comprehensive design and Neoclassicism as taught by the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Freedlander created a hierarchy of communal buildings, barracks, and service functions arranged along a central avenue with views south to the nearby mountains. Barracks No. 2 was one of two so-called "Brownlow barracks" built for veterans residing at the Mountain Branch. Along with Building No. 1, it occupies a prominent location next to the Mess Hall along Dogwood Avenue (originally McMahon Avenue), the main axis of the site plan. Other smaller barracks located to the north on secondary axes had similar plans but plainer, simpler exteriors. Building No. 2's prominent location and ornate limestone and terra cotta exterior made it one of the showpiece French Renaissance Revival structures for the Branch. Three floors and a full basement provided open ward dormitories, bathrooms, recreation rooms, lounges, and storage for the resident veterans.
