Volume 2, Fort Sam Houston Maintenance and Repair Plan: Cavalry and Light Artillery Post (2003)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Chelsea Walter

Fort Sam Houston’s buildings exhibit a variety of architectural influences because of its incremental development. Its four posts, the Quadrangle and Staff Post, Infantry Post, Cavalry and Light Artillery Post, and New Post, are excellent visual records of the Army’s planning ideals and the architectural styles employed during their respective construction periods. The various architectural styles included Italianate, Colonial Revival, Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival, Greek Revival, Classical...


Volume 2, Fort Sam Houston Maintenance and Repair Plan: Infantry Post (2003)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Chelsea Walter

Of all the posts at Fort Sam Houston, none is more complex stylistically than the Infantry Post. This complicated assemblage of stylistic influences is typified in the design of Long Barracks and Band Barracks, and is discussed in more detail later in this text. Less difficult to interpret are the post’s kitchens, mess halls, and latrines which were executed in a simplified form of the Colonial Revival style. The Colonial Revival style, also known as Georgian Revival, is an adaptation of the...

Volume 2: Camp Bullis Maintenance and Repair Plan (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Chelsea Walter

From an architectural perspective, buildings and structures at Camp Bullis are utilitarian in character. Some Craftsman and Bungalow stylistic influences can be seen in building proportions and detailing. Buildings were built economically to house, feed, and train troops; to administer training programs, and to maintain the military hardware used in training. Although the edifices of Fort Sam Houston project permanence and the public face of the Army as an enduring institution of the government,...

Wall Orientation for Outlying Structures at Pueblo la Plata (2007)
IMAGE Will Russell.

When project personnel recorded the outlying structures at Pueblo la Plata, reference was made to walls running "north/south" and walls running "east/west". This graph illustrates the variability in precise wall orientation, with black arrows corresponding with walls running "north/south" and red arrows corresponding with walls running "east/west". Results suggest there was no consistent attempt to orient outlying structures to the cardinal directions.


The Walls Still Stand: Reconstructing Population at Pueblo la Plata (2005)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Sara Mapes.

The Agua Fria National Monument, a 71,000-acre parcel of land encompassing two mesas and a river valley, is a region rich with human prehistory. The landscape is freckled with sites dating to the 13th and 14th centuries, ranging in size from a single agricultural field to pueblos of one hundred or more rooms. One particular Pueblo, Pueblo La Plata, was the focus of my research as I attempted to reconstruct its changing population through the remains of its residential structure.
