The Point Verde Building
BUILDING 507M

General Description
This facility (formerly a warehouse and electrical substation), with a total floor area of 14,500 sq.ft./1,350 m2, is comprised of two different structures.

The original building was constructed in 1942 with approximately 8,290 sq. ft./770 m2 of floor space and an estimated roof height of 28-30 ft./8.5-9.1 m. When built, the left half was a generator room and the right a boiler room with a row of related machinery rooms along the back. These areas are now being used as storage/warehouse space.

At a later date, a 6,250 sq. ft./580 m2 extension was added. This section contained a diesel generator, which has since been removed; and the main electrical switchgear substation for the base, which is still operational. An overhead crane with a 5 ton capacity is installed. There is a small two-storey administration section along the right side. It contains a workshop on the first level while two offices occupy the second.
