This row of eight (originally nine) houses with wraparound porches situated atop a raised berm overlooking the ocean would have been the most desirable officers’ quarters on the post. The wide expanse extending to the beach is now developed, but period photographs of assembled troops document its use as a parade ground. The two-story clapboard houses are all standard U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps designs. Despite their restrained appearance, the northern four houses, built 1899–1901, exhibit such Queen Anne elements as elaborate chimney masonry, steeply pitched roofs, and half-timber porch gables. The remaining four, built in 1905, are more restrained in style with low-pitched, hipped roofs and wide wraparound porches spanning both stories. The first of these, Building 38, was the post commander’s quarters, and during 1932–1933 housed Lieutenant Colonel George Marshall, later renowned for the Marshall Plan.
