Community Building in Casper
Description
The Federal Emergency Relief Administration built a community building in Casper, Wyoming, which Living New Deal believes to be the Isaac Walton League Lodge at Isaak Walton Park (also confirmed to be an FERA project completed in 1934). The facility was constructed “at an outlay of $11,267.”
Additional work was conducted at Isaak Walton Park in 1934 by relief labor.
