| Additional Information: | 1998- The Dodgeville USARC consists of 2 buildings on approximately 6 acres of land. The buildings include a training and administration building (this entry), and an Organizational Maintenance Shop (AHI #0139839). The buildings are in good condition. The maintenance shop was added to in 1990. The training building does not appear to have been significantly modified since its original construction. Neither of the buildings appear to exhibit historical or architectural character or merit that significantly contributes to the historic context of the period associated with their construction. The training building functions as an administrative and drill facility for Dodgeville USARC. The structure was originally constructed by a private party in 1963 and was obtained by the U.S. Government in 1973. The structure was built with a 1½-story section bounded to each side by a one-story section. The building has a poured concrete foundation and walls of poured reinforced concrete with a brown brick veneer. It has four tall, narrow, single-light windows, set within five ornamental brick pilasters. The main entrance is recessed with glass doors framed by large glass windows. East of the main entrance is a metal pedestrian door inset between two ornamental brick pilasters. The second story has a metal door on the west wall, which allows access to the roof. Three windows are located near the roof access door. The lower west face of the structure has four tall, narrow, single-light windows set within five ornamental brick pilasters. Flat roofs with a short parapet cover the structure. |
