Original plans have been located, but the building's designer and contractor are not listed. The building may have been constructed as part of the same contract as the nearby 1916 Seaplane Erecting Shop. Situated near several other fabrication buildings, including the Machine Shop and Blacksmith Shop, the wood and concrete latrine served civilian and service personnel alike. Modifications to the building have been minimal. Interior alterations to create space for a women's toilet in 1980 occurred in advance of designating the building a public restroom. The building is currently unused. Building No. 67 remains compatible in scale and form to its original design. Building No. 67 is located in the southeastern section of NAS Pensacola, within the boundaries of the Pensacola Naval Air Station Historic District, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The National Park Service designated this district as a National Historic Landmark (NHL) in 1976. Neither nomination clearly defines the district's period of significance; however, Building No. 67 is not identified as an historic resource within the district.
