This #FortRileyFriday we begin our look at the collection of buildings that
serve as the hub of activity for the Directorate of Public Works.
Public Works is the installation's primary element for maintenance of the
installation, infrastructure, and the environment.
Building 330 Dickman Avenue was built in 1910 out of native #limestone.
According to the Army Corp of Engineers, building 330 was originally
Teamsters' Quarters. DPW maintenance records indicate the building had a
capacity of 75 men. The basement contained the heating system (aka boiler
room,) the first floor consisted of restrooms, a kitchen and mess hall,
cooks quarters, a store room and sleeping quarters for some of the men. The
top floor contained more sleeping quarters.
Today, 330 Dickman Avenue serves as home of the DPW headquarters building.
Business Operations, Engineering Services and Master Planning Divisions are
housed in the facility.
