This #FortRileyFriday we look at Cavalry Stable Row, a series of similar buildings built between 1897 and 1912 between Cameron and Law (formerly Stuart) Avenues. These buildings formed one of two clusters of stables (the other located southeast of Artillery Parade Field.)
The Commanding General's Mounted Color Guard uses two of these building as they were originally intended-as stables for their horses. The other buildings on Stable Row have been modified for a variety of uses through the years. These include storage and warehouse facilities, a workshop for the museums, a dining facility, the Post Thrift Shop, a maintenance building for the Directorate of Emergency Services and offices for the Directorate of Family, Morale, Welfare and Recreation, the Civilian Personnel Advisory Center (CPAC) to name a few.
Pictured: Building 281 (top to bottom) in a 1918 postcard; a photo taken sometime in the mid 1930s; present day.
