This Campus Guide is intended for

visitors, alumni, and students who
wish to learn more about the history
and buildings of the United States
Military Academy at West Point.
West Point is a large campus, covering
, acres and containing more
than , structures. Just over sixty of
the Academy’s most notable buildings
and sites are included in the guide,
from the Plain and Olmsted Hall to
Buffalo Soldiers’ Field, Mahan and
Taylor Halls, to the Cadet, Jewish,
and Catholic Chapels. All these are beautifully situated along the banks
of the Hudson River.
Following an overall introduction, the book is divided into six
Walks covering the major campus areas: Buffalo Soldiers Area, Academic
Area, Chapel Area, Academy Housing and Enlisted Men’s Area, Post
Services Area, and Monuments and Memorials. Each Walk is a separate
chapter comprised of an introduction that describes the history of the area,
with a map and a list of buildings on the Walk, followed by entries on each
building. Photographs and details on dates and designers accompany the
entries. Each building at the Academy has a clearly posted identification
number. These same numbers are found in parenthesis with each building
included in the text. (The other number for each building is given by the
publisher to identify the building on the locator maps.)
There are many other places to see while visiting West Point. The
large housing areas to the north and west of the campus reflect different eras
of military base planning; the walking paths often offer dramatic views of the
campus and the Hudson River; two Revolutionary War forts—Clinton and
Putnam—provide interesting insight into this military era; and historical
memorials commemorating wars and notable alumni are located throughout
the grounds. Visitors are urged to schedule time for a leisurely visit to the
cemetery behind the Cemetery Chapel.
A final note regarding the size of the campus. The breadth and
rolling terrain make a walk through the entire campus a daunting endeavor;
there are also few nearby public restroom facilities. The visitor may stumble
upon a refreshing water fountain from time to time, many placed about the
campus as memorials from individual classes. There are suggestions in the
text about which areas to view on foot and which are more suitable to visit
by automobile.

A special note: The United State Military Academy at West Point

is unlike other schools of higher education. In addition to being a teaching
university, it is an active military base. Visiting here is different than an
afternoon strolling around Brown University, for example. Restricted areas
are not accessible by unescorted civilians and visitors are urged not to enter;
these areas are designated by small brown signs. A few buildings included in
the Campus Guide are located in these regions; please view these fine struc-
tures from surrounding buildings or atop the Cadet Chapel. Many other
buildings are also private and not open to visitors. Suggestions for viewing
and visiting particular buildings are offered in the text. Photog­raphy is per-
mitted everywhere outdoors around the campus.
xvi Foreword

The architecture of the United States Military Academy at West Point

reflects the history, traditions, and strengths of the United States of America
as well as the character of its armed forces. Originally chosen as a defense
position against British forces during our nation’s war for independence,
West Point became a military academy in . Since then, the architects of
its facilities have adhered over the years to West Point’s military mission,
while effectively utilizing its rolling topography on the bluffs of the
Hudson River.
Through the Gothic portals of the U.S. Military Academy our
nation’s finest have passed. For two hundred years, in war and peace, West
Point graduates have served the vital interests of the United States and ­­
like-minded nations. Countless graduates of the Academy have gone on to
illustrious careers as officers in the U.S. Armed Forces. From the War of
, through the opening of America’s West, the Mexican War, Spanish-
American War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, Vietnam, Desert
Storm, and in numerous other encounters, West Point graduates have proven
to be among the world’s finest military leaders. Sadly when our nation was
torn asunder during the Civil War, West Point classmates, following their
roots, took up sides, either serving with the Union or joining the Confed­
eracy. When the war ended, members of the Long Gray Line contributed
to the national healing process and brought unity once again through the
Academy’s Corps of Cadets.
As the Academy’s founder Sylvanus Thayer envisioned, members of
the Long Gray Line have also contributed to our nation’s success in pursuits
other than the military. West Pointers have been acclaimed for their contri-
butions as artists, engineers, writers, physicians, astronauts, political leaders,
ambassadors, investors, government advisors, cabinet officers, and corporate
leaders. Their contributions to the well-being and quality of life of peoples
around the world have marked a West Point education as the finest.
The Campus Guide: West Point, U.S. Military Academy, Rod Miller’s
architectural tour of West Point, with beautiful photographs by Richard
Cheek, is a fitting tribute to the history of West Point and its graduates. It
effectively brings to the public a great deal that is heretofore unknown. It is
fortuitous and appropriate that this book is published during the celebration
of West Point’s Bicentennial. This two-hundred year anniversary connotes
the U.S. joining symbolically, if not historically, those nations which have
long since achieved maturity.
This publication focuses the reader not just on the bricks and mor-
tar that make up the buildings. It provides a purposeful and meaningful his-
tory of the institution. A visit to West Point with this Campus Guide in hand
will enrich the reader, not just in architectural design but the essence of what
 xvii

Foreword
Parade on the Plain

the U.S. Military Academy represents: its military traditions and the contri-
butions of its graduates to our nation’s security and well-being. West Point’s
architecture and landscape embodies the soul of our nation’s heritage, its
excellence in education and the patriotism of its graduates. Many who made
the ultimate sacrifice chose West Point as their final resting place in a mod-
est cemetary just off the West Point Plain overlooking the Hudson Valley.
Reading this book reawakens memories of my time spent at West
Point, first as a cadet in the Class of  and in subsequent years as a tactical
officer, Regimental Commander, and Deputy Commandant, as well as my
return visits as Deputy National Security Advisor, as NATO Commander,
and as a private citizen and former member of the Board of Visitors. As the
fifty-ninth Secretary of State, I am grateful for the unique character of the
overall educational experience at the U.S. Military Academy. The broad
aspects of the West Point educational program are singularly designed to
prepare young men and women to command America’s youth in time of war.
In this respect, no other educational experience can match Service Academy
training for its emphasis on physical development, intellectual rigor, self-
discipline, and the attainment of a mature philosophical outlook. Admit­
tedly, life as a cadet at West Point is taxing, challenging, and at times
frustrating, but always rewarding and on occasion, even humorous.
The images of America’s leaders grace the landscape of West
Point. The names on buildings, statues, plaques, and portraits abound
(Washington, Grant, Pershing, Sherman, Lee, Patton, Bradley, MacArthur,
and Eisenhower) bringing to life for cadets, as well as visitors, the richness of
our nation’s history and the contributions of its graduates to this history.
xviii It is the words of General Douglas MacArthur, Class of , to
the Corps, on May ,  from the “poop deck” of Washington Hall that
best capture the meaning of the U.S. Military Academy to its graduates.
Excerpted paragraphs from that historic speech read:

You are the leaven which binds together the entire fabric of our
national system of defense. From your ranks come the great captains
who hold the nation’s destiny in their hands the moment the war tocsin
sounds. The Long Gray Line has never failed us. Were you to do so, a
million ghosts in olive drab, in brown khaki, in blue and gray, would
rise from their white crosses thundering those main words – Duty –
Honor – Country.
   This does not mean that you are war mongers. On the contrary, the
soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and
bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. But always in our ears, ring
the ominous words of Plato, that wisest of all philosophers: “Only the
dead have seen the end of war.”

This is our U.S. Military Academy at West Point. May the reader of
this guide be as inspired by the richness of West Point’s architectural history
as were those who passed through its halls, walked its grounds, and gone on
to serve as defenders of America’s freedom.
