GUTHRIE ARMORY |
| Description of Significance |
THE GUTHRIE ARMORY IS THE LARGEST OF THE NINE REMAINING WPA-BUILT PROJECTS IN GUTHRIE. THE ARMORY WAS CONSTRUCTED BETWEEN 1935 AND 1935 AND BROUGHT $47,000 INTO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. THE GUTHRIE ARMORY IS A SINGLE-STORY RECTANGULAR BUILDING WITH A ROUGH CUT SANDSTONE VENEER. THOUGH THE MASSING IS STRONGLY HORIZONTAL, SEVERAL ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS GIVE THE BUILDING A VERTICAL EMPHASIS AND SUGGEST A VERNACULAR ART DECO INFLUENCE: RECESSED STONEWORK INCISIONS IN THE FRONT FACADE, PROJECTING PILASTERS, AND TALL, VERTICAL METAL-FRAMED WINDOWS. LISTED IN NATIONAL REGISTER 9/8/1994. |
