Located on the north part of campus, Bldgs. 15H and 15I are part of a group of houses known as the “Officer’s Quarters.” These are the only small-scale residences on campus. Constructed around 1940, Bldgs. 15H and 15I and six nearby duplexes were originally reserved as living quarters for Public Health Service officers and HHS and NIH senior staff.
