Street view of Pammel Court residence Item Info

When Pammel Court first opened in 1946 the housing project consisted of a mixture of trailers, prefabricated houses, Quonset Huts, and barracks buildings. By the 1970s, only the corrugated metal barracks buildings were left. Residents in Pammel Court were often free to personalize their rental units. This included painting the exterior and interior of the units, and planting gardens in the small yard space each residence afforded.
