Notes
  • Significance: Building 103, was one of the earliest buildings constructed at the Control Station. It has always served as a residence for employees of the Southern Sierras Power Company who worked at the adjacent operations building. Building 103 is significant for its contribution to an understanding of the historic character of the physical and social environment of the Control Station compound. The Bishop Creek System is considered significant for its role: (1) in the expansion of hydroelectric generation technology, (2) in the development of eastern California, and (3) in the development of long-distance power transmission and distribution.
