Naval Weapons Station Earle Reassessment

Abstract

Naval Weapons Station Earle is a U.S. Navy installation with the primary mission of transshipment of munitions. This document is an assessment of two previous Section 110 surveys of Earle. During this reassessment, it was determined that portions of Earle are eligible to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) as a historic district under Criteria A and C. The period of significance is from 1943 1945. None of the buildings in the reassessment were found to be individually eligible for the NRHP. This reassessment satisfies Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 as amended, and it was used to determine the preliminary eligibility of Earle for inclusion on the NRHP. This report recommends that a complete integrity analysis be performed of all buildings during the period of significance to determine final eligibility.
