Frazee Block Internment Building #10
Built around 1897, this is a perfect example of one of the most common methods and styles of construction in mining towns at the turn-of-the-century. Buildings went up as quickly as possible, often within a month, using locally obtained materials.
During the internment years of the Second World War the Frazee Block became Building #10. In the basement was a bathhouse. Laundry sinks were installed on the first and second floors. When the original town school burned down in the early 50's, it became a temporary school. Today the Frazee Block is home of the Greenwood Volunteer Fire Department (and Ambulance Service).
