The Collaborative, Inc and Atkinson-Noland & Associates, Inc.. 2016. San Juan National Historic Site, Quarter No. 211 Historic Structure Report. Historic Structure Report. U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service. Atlanta, GA
This is a historic structure report for Quarter No. 211 located at San Juan National Historic Site in Puerto Rico. A Historic Structure Report (HSR) provides documentary, graphic, and physical information about a property's history and existing condition, and addresses management or owner goals for the use or re-use of the property. It provides appropriate approaches to treatment, and outlines a scope of recommended work. The report serves as a guide for all changes made to a historic structure during a project-repair, rehabilitation, restoration. Quarter No. 211 evolved from a blacksmithing facility to housing for Spanish Military Officers to housing for United States Military officers. In due course it evolved physically as a building and a site by expansion in size through additions, wall height increases, and finishes for the building, and by retaining walls, ornate fence enclosures, gates, paving, plantings, and outdoor gardens. Currently it is used as a single-family residence, occupied by the Superintendent. The Ultimate Treatment recommends its continued use as a residence.
