Description
General Description
This glass and steel structure, with half-cylindrical framework, was constructed as part of the expansion of the industrial and mechanical buildings and structures in the Service Area along the eastern edge of the property parallel to North Capitol Street. Constructed during the 1953 Master Plan phase, this utilitarian structure was built outside the Home's period of significance and, therefore, has been recommended as non-contributing.
