The Camp White Station Hospital Administration Building (Building 200) was constructed in 1942 to house hospital administration uses associated with the development of US Army Camp George A. White in White City, Jackson County, in southern Oregon. White City is an unincorporated community developed on the site of this former US Army training cantonment in the years following the Camp’s decommissioning at the end of World War II. The building was converted to the administration building for the Camp White Domiciliary in 1949. Today it still serves an administrative function associated with the 145-acre Department of Veterans Affairs Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center & Clinics (SORCC) campus. The two-story, brick-clad, Colonial Revival building was designed by noted California architect Myron Hunt based on Army Corps of Engineers plans dated November 1941. Oregon’s State Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation recommended the building’s nomination in their June 2016 meeting. It is the only individually listed property in the National Register in White City, but is one of 154 individually listed historic properties in Jackson County. The National Register is maintained by the National Park Service under the authority of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966.
