Notes
Survey number HABS CA-2398-AN
Significance: The buildings are significant as examples of the application of an important architectural trend (Spanish Colonial Revival) adapted to reflect California's mission heritage in a dramatic departure from traditional military architecture. Facility No. 346 was used by the Air Corps as a shop during World War II and originally was an ordnance warehouse. Facility No. 400 was intended as the quartermaster's warehouse and served as a Post Exchange Warehouse during World War II. In the late 1960s it was converted to a commercial transportation facility.
