Sycamore Ranger Station, also known as Sycamore Work Center and as Sycamore Administrative Site, in

contributing buildings on 2.5 acres (1.0 ha).[1]

The site was established as a ranger station in 1917, and is named for Sycamore Creek which flows westward to the Agua Fria. By the 1920s the site had an office, a dwelling, a barn and perhaps a chicken house. The CCC was asked to construct new facilities in the late 1930s or the 1940s, and it built a new dwelling and barn which survive today and a new office and shop/garage which do not survive.[2]
