Notes
  • See also HALS VA-11 for related documentation.
  • Significance: Fort Hunt, named in honor of Colonel and Bvt. Major General Henry J. Hunt, U.S.A., was established in 1898 at Sherian's Point, Virginia, on the west bank of the Potomac River, about 14 miles below Washington, D.C. ... The Quartermaster Stable (Building 21) was constructed in 1900 according to Quartermaster General Plan Number 37B. Probably no less than 14 other stables were built at other military posts throughout the United States according to this same plan. Plans, on file with the National Archives, for a stable at Fort Greble, Rhode Island (Building 11), were used as the basis for these drawings, with dimensions and details being compared to the existing structure. This frame structure, with slate roof, underwent several minor alterations throughout its use as a military stable, a portion of the Civilian Conservation Corps Camp, a U.S. Park Police Stable, and a National Park Service maintenance facility. Undated alterations included the relocation of doors and windows, removal of one partition, removal of stalls, and the installation of plumbing and heating.
