Notes
  • Significance: Storehouse #1 is a representative example of permanent general storehouse design and construction undertaken by the U.S. Navy under the Preparedness Act of August 29, 1916. The Fleet Supply Base of which it was originally a part was constructed in 1918 to receive, store and issue mechanical and general supplies to the ships of the New York-based Third Fleet. The South Brooklyn location of the base was selected due to its proximity to the rail and water transit facilities available through the adjacent Bush Terminal complex (HAER No. NY-201).
  • Survey number: HAER NY-265
