Public Utility and Civic Service Buildings

Government-owned utility and civic-service buildings this atlas records under Government and Civic Buildings that are not a legislature, court, city hall, executive residence or prison: six National Park Service comfort station restroom buildings, two other public comfort stations (the Centennial Comfort Stations in Philadelphia and the Comfort Station in Milton, Massachusetts), the Jefferson County Alms House (a historic county poorhouse), three government-run veterans' care homes, the Swiss National Stud Farm, the Thunder Bay Tourist Pagoda (an early government tourist bureau building), the United States Bullion Depository at Fort Knox, the Former Marine Police Headquarters in Hong Kong, and Gaekwad Haveli, now headquarters of the Gujarat Police. Belongs here: any government-owned civic-service or public-utility building this subcategory records that does not fit one of this subcategory's other, more specific groups. Does not belong here: any member that genuinely fits one of those other groups; those are the more useful placement whenever they apply.
