    Building 112 is built as the mirror twin of Building 111 for 16th Infantry families

    Rogers & Poor designed Building 112 in 1934 as the reverse image of Building 111, so that officers of the 16th Infantry could live on the island with their families. Both grew out of the McKim, Mead & White scheme for expanded facilities on Governors Island. The neo-Georgian brick house has three projecting two-story wood bays on its courtyard side topped by Greek key parapets.

    “Building 112 was constructed in 1934 with its mirror image, Building 111, to accommodate officers of the 16th Infantry and their family members.”
