Snell CW. 1959. Historic Structures Report, Part I: Ruins of the Large and Small Arsenal Buildings. Historic Structure Report. U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service

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 Structures Report concerns the Ruins of the Large and Small Arsenal Buildings (bldg. 26). It is proposed that non-historic building no. 26 be demolished, so as to return the scene more nearly to its appearance in the 1859-65 period.
