	Completed in 1942 for $11,956, this FC Station was disguised as a barn. The interior of the structure was not built out as barracks like Site 1A. A three-story tower with two observing levels was built within the structure. On the roof was a hatch presumably for an AAIS OP but the plans do not indicate if that was its use. 12 men manned this station, and they were quartered in Site 1A. Electric power was provided by the Newport Electric Co. or the SCR 296A auxiliary generators. The upper level (AI) served [[Fort Church\|Battery Gray]] and the lower level (AI) served [[Fort Nathanael Greene\|Battery Hamilton]]. The wooden barn was removed from around the tower around 1970 and in 1981 the tower was destroyed.		Completed in 1942 for $11,956, this FC Station was disguised as a barn.
