Comprehensive Inventory and Determinations of Eligibility for Fort Riley Buildings: 1857-1963

Abstract

This report represents the public release version of ERDC/CERL TR-09-37: "Comprehensive Historical and Architectural Documentation Report for Fort Riley, Kansas." It inventories all buildings and structures constructed at Fort Riley, Kansas, from 1855-1963, with the exception of buildings already covered under national Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) Program Comments. In three separate studies (1993-1994, 2007, and 2008), ERDC-CERL inventoried and evaluated 373 properties on the installation that were constructed during 1855-1963. Determinations of Eligibility (DOE) to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) were then made, based on the significance of the buildings and the degree to which they retain their integrity for conveying that significance. As a result, 272 of those buildings and structures have been determined to be eligible for inclusion in the NRHP.
