This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at buildings that originally served to support activities on the old Artillery Post.
Building 374 Dickman Avenue was built in 1904. It was originally designated as an Artillery Workshop. It was made with #limestone walls and foundation, with a wood and brick floor and a tin roof.
Like most buildings in this area of post, by 1930 building 374 was redesignated from an Artillery facility to a Cavalry facility after the closure of the Artillery School at #FortRiley following World War I.
Directorate of Public Works (DPW) maintenance documents show that by 1930 building 374 was designated as a "Cavalry Stable Guard and Blacksmith Shop."
In the recent past, 374 Dickman has been occupied by various janitorial service contractors. Today, building 374 is occupied by Munie Greencare Professionals, the landscaping contractor for Corvias.
