Volume 2: Camp Bullis Maintenance and Repair Plan

Year: 2004

Summary

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, Camp Bullis projects through its utilitarian and economical buildings, its exposed infrastructure, and its landscape features—an architecture of function in a rural, park-like environment and a landscape staged for the movement of troops and equipment in the field.
