From 1858 to 1890 the area in the foreground was occupied by the log and frame structure shown in the photograph. The building was the fourth Officers' Quarters in a row of six constructed shortly after For Bridger was declared a military post in 1857. For sixteen years it served as the Commanding Officer's residence with frame extensions added in 1868 and 1873 to provide a kitchen, servants room, parlor and two bedrooms. A new frame Commanding Officer's Quarters was completed in 1884 after which this building was divided into an Officers' Quarters and into Court Martial and Military Board rooms.
