ca. 1934. State Historical Society officer William P. Bonney, Clifford Babcock (president Wa. State Historical Society), and David H. White (president Washington Pioneers Association) photographed on steps of Fort Nisqually granary building after reconstruction at Point Defiance Park, circa 1934. The Granary was one of the two buildings original to the Fort that remained. It was built in 1851 and is the oldest standing building in the state of Washington. It was created as a storage facility for the Fort's harvest of produce and grain. ( Fort Nisqually web site.) (filed with Argentum)
