Architectural Investigation Proposed Demolition of Seven World War II Era Structures, Fort Dix Military Installation, Burlington and Ocean Counties, New Jersey

Author(s): Douglas C. McVarish

Year: 1998

Summary

This project is an architectural investigation of seven buildings (Buildings 5311, 5319, 5321, 6510, 6608, 6621, and 6622) located on the Fort Dix Military Installation in Burlington County, New Jersey. Due to the lack of any foreseeable need for these presently unused and partially used buildings, the U.S. Army has proposed to demolish them. In 1986, the Department of Defense entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation and the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers to document the temporary buildings erected on U.S. military installations during mobilization for World War II. In accordance with this MOA and with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the U.S. Army has contracted to document these buildings prior to their demolition. John Milner Associates, Inc. was sub-contracted by Foster Wheeler Environmental Corporation, prime contractor to Fort Dix, to examine the seven buildings and make recommendations for a determination of eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places and for Pinelands Designation.
