Hamilton Air Force Base, California - Company Officers Quarters Type B1 Page 2

Continued from Page 1.

Basements are accessed by exterior garage doors and interior stairways from the kitchen hallways. Each floor plan is divided into a garage, boiler room, and storage room. An unexcavated crawl space is present under the front porch.

The primary access to the homes is through a central hall, with a living room and porch on one side and dining room, kitchen, pantry, and maid's room and bath on the other.

Rooms on the second floor include a master bedroom with bathroom, and two smaller bedrooms and a bathroom.

Kitchens were remodeled in 1955 and original cabinets, appliances, hardware, flooring, and lighting were replaced. In 1962 the tile countertops and backsplashes in the kitchen were removed and replaced with postformed plastic laminate. Kitchen floor coverings were replaced with vinyl asbestos tiles. A recessed light fixture was added over the sink at this time. Some interior fixtures in the remainder of the house have been removed and replaced with modern fixtures. Porches were enclosed on some units in 1934 and others were enclosed in 1956.
