Post Headquarters

Military
The fort’s headquarters, also known as the administration building, was constructed in 1901. Its first floor contained offices, and its second floor was used for courts martial and records storage. The fort’s first official headquarters was located at the southeast end of Maple Boulevard and still stands today. After WWII, this administration building became part of the Governor Bacon Health Center and was later used by the Delaware Bay Marine Institute and the Civil Air Patrol.
