Constructed in 1910 at the head of Officers Row, the Commanding Officer Quarters stands on what was once Delaware City farmland. Prominently located on the north corner of the Parade Ground, it held a highly visible and dominating presence within the fort. From there, the commanding officer could observe troop drills, recreational events, and everyday fort activities. After World War II, the building served as administrative offices for the Governor Bacon Health Center, and in 2015 it became home to the Fort DuPont Redevelopment and Preservation Corporation.
