The Columbine Work Station in Coronado National Forest near Safford, Arizona was built in 1935 by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). The complex is a representative example of a Depression-era Forest Service administrative center. The station is on a high point of the Pinaleño Mountains in forested land. The main residence is in the Forest Service bungalow style. The barn is unique, not designed to a standard Forest Service prototype.^[2]

The station was built by a CCC unit operating from a camp about five miles away in 1934–35.^[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993^[1] for its architecture, which is Bungalow/Craftsman style. It served historically as institutional housing. Two contributing buildings on 1 acre (4,000 m²) were included in the NRHP listing.^[1] The station continues to be used for summer maintenance activities in Coronado National Forest.^[2]
