Property Features
The building measures 25 x 65 feet and rests on a stuccoed concrete wall foundation with a metal watertable. The exterior walls are constructed of tan clay tile with red brick corner quoins. The gable roof is sheathed with composition shingles with exposed purlin ends. The eave is sheathed in metal. Each upper gable has a rectangular wood louvered vent with canted corners. The windows are metal-frame, one-over-one-light, double-hung sash units that replaced the original wood-frame, six-over-six-light, double-hung sash. The windows have wood lintels and concrete sills. The original doorway was located in the west elevation and contained a pair of double wood doors. The door currently contains a single metal door with a large light and plywood infill. The doorway has a wood lintel with a brick surround. The east elevation has an exterior square, wood-paneled icebox door with two exterior hinges and a doorway. The original window opening on the east elevation was infilled with similar clay tile. Most of the original vertical wood board window shutters have been removed.
After the property was leased for use by the Air National Guard in 1954, this building was converted into training classrooms. In 1987, the building was renovated into living quarters with individual rooms, a dayroom, indoor plumbing, and heat. Some windows and doors were reconfigured. A new porch, new steps, and a wood deck were constructed on the west end of the building.
