Was site for territorial capital and used to protect gold miners from Indians. Fort was ordered abandoned in 1898 and ordered reopened the next day to train troops for Spanish-American War. Troops who took basic training here became part of Rough Riders. Fiorello La Guardia lived at Fort Whipple when his father was band master. Quarters, despite stories, were not designed by Stanford White. They were not built in 1903 as VA records show, but in 1905- 8. All old fort buildings are significant and some archeological sites associated with original stockade may still exist along Granite Creek and original hospital site may still be traceable.
