With an appearance reminiscent of a metal tube cut lengthwise down the center, the Quonset hut was created and used by the U.S. military during World War II to solve the need for a prefab, portable building that could be shipped to military posts to use as barracks among other uses. More than 150,000 were manufactured for the U.S. Navy as soldiers’ quarters, latrines, mess halls and storage. When WWII ended, some of the huts were sold to people for use as chicken coops, businesses and even houses.
This is only the second quonset hut house I have come across. The first was in Iowa.
