Historic Building Report, Part I: The McCabe-Marmion Building (Bldg. 43)
Snell CW. 1958. Historic Building Report, Part I: The McCabe-Marmion Building (Bldg. 43). 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 McCabe-Marmion Building (Bldg. 43) in the Lower Town area of Harpers Ferry. The report contends that a stronger case can be made for the stabilization of Building #43 as a ruin than for its restoration to the historic period.
