Exterior of recently completed brick quarters for bachelor officers at Fort Lewis. Colonial-style architecture with pedimented entry and keystone element above windows. Over a period of six years, the federal government has expended $5,500,000 at the Fort and provided employment for thousands. The development program is scheduled to be completed by the end of 1934. Over 80 buildings, in brick, stucco and steel, have replaced the ramshackle wooden structures at the Fort, making it one of the principal US encampments. (T. Times 11/23/1934, pg. 1) (WSHS)
