Buildings 107, 289, and 291 Demolition, HABS/HAER Architectual Assessment, Holloman Air Force Base, Otero County, New Mexico

On June 10 and 11, 1996, an architectural assessment of three buildings was conducted on Holloman Air Force Base, Otero County, New Mexico, by Geo-Marine, Inc. Buildings 107, 289, and 291, constructed during World War II, are scheduled for demolition as part of the German Air Force Beddown project. Buildings 107 and 291 are considered ineligible for placement on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) because of their extensive alteration. HABS/HAER Level IV documentation was completed on these two buildings. Building 289, although retaining historic integrity, does not satisfy the criteria for significance as an individual property. As the building still retains historic integrity and could potentially be considered a contributing feature as part of either a district or multiple property nomination, HABS/HAER Level I documentation was completed on this building. The two levels of HABS/HAER documentation were determined to be sufficient to exhaust all research potential for these buildings. Cultural resources clearance is recommended for the demolition project.
