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.
According to the Army Corps of Engineers, Building 334 Dickman Avenue was built in 1897 as a Q.M. (Quartermaster) Garage. DPW maintenance records indicate it was constructed from corrugated iron, wood and native #limestone with a concrete floor. An eastward expansion of the building took place on an unknown date.
Most recently, building 334 was home to DPW’s Division of Roads and Grounds. Today, it is being renovated into classrooms and a conference room.
