Military History Talk – More Than “This Old House”: 1980s Rehabilitation on Officers Row

May 25 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

The many houses of the Vancouver Barracks’ Officers Row were built between 1849 and 1906. Following World War II, the United States Army donated the houses and land to new owners, such as the Veterans Administration.  By the mid-1980s, the City of Vancouver took over Officers Row, and found many buildings in need of emergency repairs. Working together, historians, architects, and community leaders launched a campaign of renovation and restoration, to return Officers Row to its former glory.
