Notes
  • 2002 Charles E. Peterson Prize, Entry
  • Significance: Building 15, originally Barrack 6, is one of four remaining 1918 barrack buildings that represents a World War I-era building campaign at Camp Mabry in Austin, Texas. A Texas militia site since 1892, Camp Mabry was primarily a parade ground until State, Federal, and University of Texas officials collaborated to construct an automotive mechanic school in support of United States troops participating in World War I. University of Texas architect George Endress designed the School of Automotive Mechanics (SAM) wood workshops, six brick barrack buildings, a brick mess hall, and several support buildings. The University of Texas also supervised construction and sponsored the school which operated for a short time from July 1918 until the cessation of World War I in November of that same year. Though short lived, the association with the nationwide federal program SAM ties building 15 to a national context of military construction during World War I.
