Intensive Architectural Survey of World War II and Cold War Resources, Camp Shelby, Mississippi

Abstract

In March 2002, Brockington and Associates, Inc., conducted an intensive architectural survey of World War II (WWII) and Cold War Resources at Camp Shelby, Mississippi. These investigations provide compliance with Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act as per 36 CFR Part 800: Protection of Historic Properties. Camp Shelby is a former Army installation, and now serves as a primary training facility for the Mississippi National Guard. This report presents a historical overview of the project area and an analysis of the historical architectural resources identified during the intensive architectural survey. The intensive survey identified 33 historic architectural resources associated with WWII and the Cold War on Camp Shelby. Thirty-two of these resources are buildings, including warehouses, storage facilities, maintenance facilities, residences, and ammunition storage facilities. One of the resources is a wastewater treatment plant. The wastewater treatment plant is recommended eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The plant consists of Buildings 5590-5596, and includes three concrete tanks, two clarifier ponds, two aeration basins, a control house, and other small supporting buildings and structures. The remaining historic architectural resources are recommended not eligible for the NRHP.
