This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at the collection of buildings that serve as the hub of activity for the Directorate of Public Works (DPW). Public Works is the installation's primary element for maintenance of the installation, infrastructure, and the environment. Building 332 Dickman Avenue was built in 1897 out of native #limestone. According to the Army Corps of Engineers, building 332 was originally a Quartermasters Stable. DPW maintenance records (from 1935) refer to the facility as a Motor Transport Garage and Repair Shop. A westward expansion of the building was completed on an unknown date.
Today, the structure continues to serve as a maintenance facility for DPW.
The small building immediately north of building 332 is building 333. It opened in 1948 as a Dispatch/Administration building.
