Lamonta Compound – Prineville Supervisor's Warehouse

The Lamonta Compound – Prineville Supervisor's Warehouse is a complex of buildings and related infrastructure owned an operated by the Ochoco National Forest in Prineville, Oregon, United States. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933–1934, it is the headquarters for field operations in the national forest and is typical of projects carried out by the CCC on behalf of the Forest Service. It represents that era's shift in the Forest Service's architectural vision toward comprehensive site planning, as well as its policy evolution from custodial superintendence of the national forests toward active natural resource management.[1]
