United States Public Health Service Building
United States Public Health Service Building, Federal office building at Constitution Avenue, Washington, D.C., United States.
The United States Public Health Service Building features white Georgia marble, limestone, and stucco exterior with a thirteen-bay engaged double-height colonnade of Doric pilasters.
The structure, completed in 1931, housed the Combined Chiefs of Staff during World War II, who coordinated operations including the Manhattan Project within its walls.
Members of the American Indian Movement occupied the building for six days in November 1972 to bring attention to treaty rights and living conditions.
Located at 1951 Constitution Avenue Northwest, the building currently operates under the Federal Reserve Board of Governors following a 2018 transfer of ownership.
The executive office suite contains intricate wood paneling, while marble entrance lobbies and a decorated auditorium demonstrate the building's architectural refinement.
