The Office of the Quartermaster General designed this building as an NCO club and the 13th Engineer Regiment constructed it in 1939. The building was constructed with materials appropriated from the post. Prior to this time, a “Hostess House” served enlisted and civilian personnel on post. The NCO club was built on the edge of the NCO housing area. The building was designed in the same Colonial Revival style as the adjacent housing, and was centrally located near community facilities, barracks, and duty stations. The building functioned as a service club through the 1980’s, changing to General Instruction use in 1995. An integral part of the Fort Belvoir Historic District, this building is on the Virginia Landmarks Register.Erected 2018 by Fort Belvoir.
