Notes
  • Significance: Building No. 1054 was built as the Wind River Experimental Station Office and Laboratory in 1912. Its significance lies in its relationship to the development of the Administrative Site, especially the Wind River Experiment Station. The early growth of this agency is reflected in this structure, the third built by the Experiment Station for its own use. It is the oldest surviving structure constructed by the Experiment Station. It is one of two buildings that survive from the first wave of development by the Experiment Station that occurred prior to 1920. It has been determined eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places as it retains integrity of design, location, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. The building embodies the feeling of the Arts and Crafts movement, common in residential construction at the time. The building was moved from its original location in December of 1935, yet it retained the same orientation to Chapman Avenue as it became a guesthouse and the Experiment Station constructed a new office (Building No. 1319) on its former site.
