John,

Not exactly what you're looking for, but local lore holds that two
large homes in Twin Falls (both located on Falls Avenue) were
constructed using old barracks from the Hunt Camp in Jerome County. 
Perhaps some of the original architecture remains.

Neil King, Superintendent for the Hunt Camp National Monument, might be
a valuable resource for your search.

Joey

I am looking for anyone who is familiar with the Japanese Internment
(concentration) camps
that were built ca. 1940-42 for thousands of Japanese Americans.  

I am specifically interested in the construction of the buildings,
especially the warehouses.   I can find nothing on the Minidoka (Hunt,
Idaho) in the National Archives such as blue prints and construction
plans.  

Is there anyone with knowledge of historical warehouses and the
structure of these buildings?  I could forward you jpg pictures
showing
the interior/exterior of our specific warehouse if that would help. 
Thanks in advance.
