Sherman Quarters, Historic adobe building in Downtown Monterey, United States.
The Sherman Quarters consists of a one-story adobe structure with fieldstone exterior, painted earthen plaster, wooden shutters, and a front gable shake roof.
Built in 1834 by Thomas Oliver Larkin, the quarters housed Lieutenant William T Sherman from 1847 to 1849 during the military occupation of California.
The building represents the architectural methods of early California, featuring traditional adobe construction techniques combined with American colonial design elements.
Located at 510 Calle Principal, visitors can view the exterior of the building through the gardens of the adjacent Larkin House.
A spiked cannon stands in front of the house, transformed into a hitching post during the building's military occupation period.
