    A one-story triangular outbuilding is built beside the Fort Columbus barracks

    Building 207 is a small triangular one-story structure, built in 1834-36 on a foundation of granite and sandstone alongside the new barracks inside Fort Columbus. The city's landmark report lists it as a related structure of Building 206. A 1934 Historic American Buildings Survey counted eight such triangles around the quadrangle at one time, five of which had been absorbed into the barracks.
