Additional Information: | Building 302 was constructed between November 1931 and July 1932 as the Camp Headquarters Officers bathhouse. Lt. Colonel Henry C. Hengels, State of Wisconsin Military Architect and Engineer, was the architect. The building originally contained showers and latrines. The building was renovated during the late 1980s as a laundry. The one-story building measures 38 x 20 feet and is constructed of stuccoed hollow clay tile. The corners of the building and the exterior end chimney stack are fieldstone. The gable roof is sheathed with asphalt shingles and has scrolled purlin ends on the gable ends and exposed rafter ends along the side elevations. The original wood-frame, six-over-six-light, double-hung sash windows have been replaced with metal-frame, one-over-one-light units. All window openings have wood lintels and stone sills. Metal doors access the building on the east and west elevations. |
