Yuma Quartermaster Depot (#0906)
I was impressed with the historic preservation efforts in Yuma. There are two historic sites in Yuma, the Territorial Prison and the Quartermaster Depot, that were both Arizona State Parks but the state of Airzona ended funding of them and the city of Yuma took over funding and management. The Quartermaster Depot (I did not visit the Territorial Prison) had very helpful staff and good descriptions of the role of Yuma in the colonization/conquest of the area by European settlers and of the subsequent industrialization through the damming, channeling, and bridging of the Colorado.
This particular picture is of the first Army outpost built in Yuma and illustrates that the U.S. officer learned how to build for the heat from the indigenous people, including building very wide porches and using very thick adobe-based walls. See: azstateparks.com/Parks/YUQU
