    A one-story brick garage is built beside Building 206 in the Fort Jay quadrangle

    Building 205 is a one-story brick garage built between 1935 and 1937, a twin of Building 208, and the Landmarks Preservation Commission lists it with the Building 206 barracks in the Fort Jay quadrangle. The barracks themselves date to the 1830s and have housed officers, enlisted men and, under the Coast Guard, families. The garages are among the quadrangle's later additions.
