This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at buildings that were built to support activities on both the historic Cavalry and Artillery Posts.
Building 309 Holbrook Avenue (between Carter and Dickman Avenues) was built in 1906. Constructed from native limestone bldg. 309 was first used as a vegetable storehouse.
This area of Main Post between and to the south of the Cavalry and Artillery Posts is referred to in historic terms by the Army Corp of Engineers as the Quartermaster Supply Service District. The buildings in this area served their respective functions in support of both posts.
Today, building 309 is being used for storage.
