This #FortRileyFriday we continue our look at buildings that originally served to support activities on the old Artillery Post.
Building 376 Carter Avenue was built in 1901. It was originally used as an Artillery Stable. Its walls, floor and foundation were made from #limestone and it had a tin roof. It was built to stable 84 horses.
Like most buildings in this area of post, by 1930 building 376 was redesignated from an Artillery facility to a Cavalry facility. This was a result of the Artillery School at #FortRiley being discontinued following World War I.
Today, building 376 is occupied by Munie Greencare Professionals, the landscaping contractor for Corvias.
