The Frederick Armory is one of a series of similar armories built for the Maryland National Guard in the early 20th century. The building explicitly copies features of medieval fortifications, with crenelated blocks at either end of a buttressed drill hall.{{cite web|url=https://mht.maryland.gov/secure/medusa/PDF/NR_PDFs/NR-922.pdf |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Frederick Armory|date=July 1985 |accessdate=2016-01-01 |author=Susanne Moore |publisher=Maryland Historical Trust}}
