It was built in 1942, and is a two-story, square Modern Movement style stuccoed brick factory building. It features a wide ribbon of glass block underscored by a continuous concrete sill stretches across the facade at each story and recessed double-leaf entrances set into cast-concrete peaked surrounds. The building was constructed by the Defense Plant Corporation during World War II to support the manufacturing of gunfire control equipment for the United States Navy. It was later used to build precision instruments here for the U. S. military and later for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.nps.gov/nr/listings/20130104.htm|title=National Register of Historic Places Listings|date=2013-01-04|work=Weekly List of Actions Taken on Properties: 12/26/12 through 12/28/12|publisher=National Park Service}} {{National Register of Historic Places in North Carolina}}{{DurhamCountyNC-NRHP-stub}}2. ^{{Cite web | author = Cynthia de Miranda | title=Wright's Automatic Machinery Company| work = National Register of Historic Places - Nomination and Inventory | date = May 2012| url = http://www.hpo.ncdcr.gov/nr/DH1916.pdf | format = pdf | publisher = North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office | accessdate = 2014-10-01}} 7 : Machine manufacturers|Industrial buildings and structures on the National Register of Historic Places in North Carolina|Modern Movement architecture in the United States|Industrial buildings completed in 1942|Buildings and structures in Durham, North Carolina|National Register of Historic Places in Durham County, North Carolina|1942 establishments in North Carolina |
