PIPE SPRING Cultures at a Crossroads: An Administrative History

The Heaton Residence

No improvements were made to the old custodian's residence (CCC infirmary) during the late 1950s as construction of the new residences was imminent. The only request Heaton made was on July 10, 1958, when he called Zion to ask for an evaporative cooler for the residence. It was so hot inside that his daughter Millicent had fainted from heat exhaustion. (McKown's trailer had a cooler.) See "Monument Administration, 1961" section for reference to the building's removal.
