17. Officers Quarters


The wooden officer’s quarters across the street from the quads were built between 1919 and 1923 to house the officers of the regiments assigned to the neighboring quads. The stucco houses, built to accompany the last infantry quad, were constructed using plans originally designed for Fort Huachuca, Arizona. The flat roofs, in the original design, were later changed to pitched roofs to deal with the Hawaiian rains. The area now known as "General’s Loop" was originally designated to house the artillery units. When the artillery role was enlarged, however, their barracks were moved and the generals’ quarters were built. The center bungalow, designated for the senior officer, was first occupied by Brig Gen John W Heard in 1918.
