Building 40, Georgian revival building at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, D.C., United States.
Building 40 features three main floors with brick exterior walls, limestone trim at entrances, and a raised stone basement at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

The pavilions bear names of notable medical pioneers, including Colonel Charles Craig and Brigadier General George Sternberg, who advanced military medicine research.
