FORT APACHE HISTORIC PARK
Girls' Dormitory
120
Circa 1932
 History: The Girls' Dormitory, per the cornerstone, was
constructed in 1932 with labor provided by the Works Progress Administration
(W.P.A.). It is located along the west end of the parade ground. Sandstone was
quarried for the building's construction from a site about half a mile east of
the post; a German stonecutter was commissioned to supervise the work. Before
the dormitory was built, the old Cavalry barracks were used for student
housing.
