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 First and Second Marmion Tenant Houses (Bldgs. 1-D and 1-C) in the Lower Town area of Harpers Ferry. It is recommended with reservations that building 1-C be rehabilitated as employee quarters, with the exterior of the building restored in its 1859-1865 appearance.
