Notes
  • Significance: Building #123 at Fort Riley is one of only four remaining structures left from the early period of construction at Fort Riley, during the 1850's. It was built specifically to house the post chaplain and appears on the early site plan as the "Parsonage." For many years (1855-1890) it served as the post chaplain's residence. Unlike the other quarters built during this period, Building #123 was not included in the rectangular lay-out of the fort. This maybe due to the fact that the early buildings were grouped by function (i.e. officer's quarters, stables, administrative buildings, etc.). The result being that the chapel and the parsonage, both non-military in function, sat off from the main post, to the northwest. The simple, early styling of this building, including hammered stone walls and an unornamented. low second story construction reflects the early pioneering period of Fort Riley's history. Building #123 bears a close resemblance to Building #24, built during the same period, in styling and materials. Building #123, however, was built for single family occupancy rather than as a double quarters or duplex.
