The Report contains historical and architectural data sections with a brief reference to the administrative data and to a separate report prepared on the archeological data. The report traces the history of the Barracks from its construction in the summer of 1863 to its future as a youth hostel. The historical data section provides a description of the structure as to its original design and the effects of remodeling in the 1880's and in the 1900's. In 1928, the structure was converted to the 'Embarkation Casual Center' which was used as lodging facilities for families and uniformed personnel who were going overseas. Several wings were added to the structure from 1927 to 1940 to meet the growing demands of the military to temporarily house its corps of personnel. The architectural details and construction elements of the Barracks with references to dates and time periods. Recommendations and treatments for restoration of the exterior to its 1892 appearance are provided.
