    The Army builds a pair of one-story brick garages near the Fort Jay barracks

    Building 212 is a one-story brick garage built in 1935-37, one of two such garages, with Building 217, that the landmarks report lists among the structures related to Building 214. That barracks dates to 1834-36 and has long housed officers and enlisted men, and under the Coast Guard it became family housing.
