Harpers Ferry National Historical Park preserves historic resources and commemorates the historic events that occurred at and around Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. The park consists of portions of the Lower Town, the former Storer College campus, landscapes associated with the national historical park’s Civil War significance, and lands preserving the historic viewshed down the Potomac River. This historic building report concerns the Burton Building (bldg. 14) in the Lower Town of Harpers Ferry. At the time of the report's creation, the structure was dismantled and in storage. The structure is proposed to be rebuilt on its original site and restored to its appearance in the 1859-1865 period. The interior of the building is to be restored as a store of the 1859-65 period that visitors may view through the windows from the street.
