- Description:
- The plantation-style house was built as a summer home by Arthur Bussey in 1909, at his plantation along the Chattahoochee River. The plantation was sold to the United States Army in 1918, when the house became the Commandant's Quarters. Photographic print is labeled in the negative along the bottom: "(6-116-16OBSN)(9-21-35) 'Commandant's Quarters,' Fort Benning, Georgia." Typed newspaper caption was clipped to print (since removed): "The Commandant's quarters, Fort Benning, Georgia. This old colonial home, which, prior to its purchase by the government, was the Bussy Plantation, lends a bit of old Southern charm to the thoroughly modern Infantry School."
