The Army builds a residence for Fort Jay's nurses, later converted to bachelor officers' quarters
Building 114 was built in 1934 to house the nurses of Fort Jay, whose hospital (now Building 515) stood fairly nearby. The architects, Rogers & Poor, echoed the forms and details of the adjacent Buildings 111 and 112 on a smaller scale. The Coast Guard later converted it to bachelor officers' quarters.

Building 114 is a neo-Georgian brick residence with a gabled central pavilion
Designed by Rogers & Poor in the neo-Georgian style, Building 114 is a rectangular brick building across from Castle Williams. A two-and-a-half-story central pavilion with a gabled roof is flanked by two-story wings with flat roofs behind parapets. The red brick is laid in Flemish bond above a limestone base, and the east and west entrances differ because the building sits on a slope.
