Notes
  • Significance: Building #616, completed in 1886, was the first permanent administration building for the military post of San Antonio (officially named Fort Sam Houston in 1890). Part of a complex of buildings that included barracks and additional officers housing built between 1886 and 1893, this "New Government Post," now commonly known as Infantry Post, firmly established San Antonio as a military post rather than merely a supply depot. Simple in its design, the building's appearance has remained virtually unchanged since its construction. Since the 1820's, it has been used for officer's housing.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-183
  • Survey number: HABS TX-3303-8
