Description
"The Ligonier Armory is the headquarters of Company F, One Hundred and Third Medical Regiment of the Pennsylvania National Guard, and was part of a general program to house properly the military forces of the State.
The building provides a drill hall, 60 by 90 feet, a quartermaster's supply room, a troop room, an orderly room, several officers' rooms, and a six-car garage.
Its design is extremely simple, the exterior walls being red face brick with parapet coping, sills, and trim of stone.
It was completed in June 1938 at a construction cost of $56,942 and a project cost of $64,378."
