Snell CW. 1957. Historic Building Report, Part I, Historical Data: Building 7. 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 structure report concerns the Building 7 in the Lower Town area of Harpers Ferry. At the time of the report, Building 7's historical name in the 1859-65 period was yet to be determined. It is proposed that the exterior of the building is to be restored to the 1859-65 period. Under Mission 66 planning, it has been suggested that visitor rest rooms for women be located in Building 7 for use during the heavy travel season.
