Final Report: A Cultural Resources Survey of Cold War Era Resources at Arnold Air Force Base Coffee and Franklin Counties, Tennessee - Volume IV: Addendum
Author(s): Matthew E. Prybylski; Caitlin E. Edge
Year: 2017
Summary
Review of the 2005 and 2008 survey results and recommendations and to update the significance of 563 Cold War Era resources at Arnold Air Force Base. The Cold War era buildings documented as a part of the 2012 survey was completed in 2014 and date between 1946 and 1989. After the contract for the 2012 survey was executed, the Department of Defense officially defined the Cold War era as dating to the period of 1946-1991. As such, this report represents an investigation of 119 buildings and structures at Arnold Air Force Base dating to 1990 and 1991 as well as additional buildings dating to 1946 – 1989 that were not included in the 2012 survey. Department of Defense contexts and standards, as well as National Register of Historic Places guidelines and scholarship, were used to review the resources and evaluate their historic and architectural significance. Resources documented were assessed individually and as contributing resources to a historic district, historic landscape, or a multiple resource property. Specific topics were considered in making these evaluations, including the development and role of Arnold Air Force Base, especially as a research, development, test, and evaluation facility; what specific Cold War activities occurred on base; its comparative value to other research, development, test, and evaluation facilities; and how the Cold War influenced the base architectural. None of the 119 historic structural resources were determined to be eligible for listing on the National Register. While they were all constructed during the Cold War, none played a significant role in Cold War history.
