This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at some of the structures that once served as stables near the former Artillery Post.
Building 362 Carter Avenue was built in 1889 and was first used as an Artillery Post Stable. Its walls were constructed from native #limestone with a brick floor and a tin roof.
After World War I the Artillery School at #FortRiley was discontinued and building 362 was redesigned as a Cavalry Stable. By 1930, the building had been updated with a cement floor and slate roof.
Today, building 362 is being used by the Directorate of Public Works Housing Services Office to store appliances and other furnishings for barracks around post.
