This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at buildings that originally served to support activities on the old Artillery Post.
Building 368 Carter Avenue was built in 1889. It was originally used as an Artillery Stable. It was made with #limestone walls, floor and foundation
with a tin roof. It was designed to stable 70 horses.
Like most buildings in this area of post, by 1930 building 368 was redesignated from an Artillery facility to a Cavalry facility following the closing of the Artillery School at #FortRiley following World War I.
Today, building 368 is occupied the Directorate of Public Works (DPW) and is part of their Operations Center. Among other activities, the DPW Receiving area is housed in building 368.
