Notes
  • Significance: The First Officer's Quarters to be completed on Post, Staff Post #6 was one of fifteen quarters built during the early 1880s to house the officers and their families assigned to the Military Post at San Antonio. The residence was built as the Commander General's Quarters and has remained the residence of the Senior Commanding Officer on Post since its construction. Many of the occupants have been noted figures in United States Military History. All fifteen residences on Staff Post were designed by local architect Alfred Giles and provide an excellent example of regional architecture during this period. While all of these quarters are similar in material and scale however, the interior and exterior detailing on Quarter #6 is decidedly more elaborate by comparison. The residence was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on July 30, 1974.
