BOISE ARMY BARRACKS HISTORY
The former Boise Army Barracks site consists of 8,570 acres partially located within the City of Boise, and unincorporated Ada County, Idaho. The site was originally occupied in 1863 as “Fort Boise” and supported military activities through World War II. The site consists of two parcels of land. The first parcel is the Main Post Area, consisting of 637 acres and containing all facilities supporting the former barracks activities. The second parcel is the Watershed Area, a 7,318 acre area conveyed to the Army in 1905 to ensure an adequate water supply to the post. Today owners of the former Boise Army Barracks include the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the City of Boise, and Ridge to Rivers.
