Bathhouse

1938, attributed to Gilbert R. Horton. 7th St. S at 4th Ave. S

Three blocks from the Civic Auditorium (MT7) is another distinctive fieldstone building constructed with WPA funding. The bathhouse (changing rooms, but historically referred to as a bathhouse) is a single-story gable-roofed building with tapered timber lintels over the operable clerestory windows and a cedar-shingle roof. The pool is still in active use.
