Guard House
Built in 1872 This is the third guard house built on the former arsenal grounds. It is pointed out primarily because the first guard house, built in 1852, was the setting of the trial of Second Lieutenant Ulysses S. Grant later President of the United States, charged with a minor infraction of military regulations. The rear portion of the building housed the military fire equipment.
