Historic Structure - Physical Status Report, Part I: Fort Jefferson National Monument
Alexander WM. 1970. Historic Structure - Physical Status Report, Part I: Fort Jefferson National Monument. Historic Structure Report. U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service
The report conveys a picture of physical condition and use of the Fort Jefferson National Monument at the time of the investigation. Alexander concludes that immediate attention is needed to save the structures, as weathering by way of wind, rain, saline environment, hurricanes, and tides have deteriorated the structure. Of particular concern are the remaining wood portions of the structure, which Alexander recommends be demolished and rebuilt. The report is primarily pictorial and graphical.
