Description

General Description
This masonry structure 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 lacks stylistic detailing. It was built outside the period of significance and is, therefore, recommended as non-contributing.
