WPA Field House and Pump Station, New Deal era public facility in Scituate, Massachusetts.
The WPA Field House and Pump Station features stone construction with a slate side-gable roof, measuring 1.5 stories high across 41 feet wide.
Built between 1938 and 1939, this structure served as both a recreational center and water supply facility during the Great Depression recovery period.
The field house represented a central gathering space for community events, sports activities, and social programs throughout the mid-twentieth century.
Located at Henry Bailey Turner Road, the facility includes a basement for storage and an upper level that previously hosted community group meetings.
Architect M. Joseph Milano combined bungalow, craftsman, and Classical Revival elements in the design, including distinctive stone piers supporting the front porch.
