Russell Senate Office Building, Beaux-Arts government building in Capitol Hill, United States.
The Russell Senate Office Building features 34 Doric columns on its Constitution Avenue facade, mirroring design elements from the Palais du Louvre in Paris.
Construction began in 1903 after Congress authorized new office spaces to address overcrowding in the Capitol, with the building opening its doors in 1909.
The Kennedy Caucus Room within the building has hosted numerous significant hearings, including investigations into the Titanic disaster and Watergate scandal.
The building contains individual office suites for United States senators, committee rooms, a post office, and multiple conference facilities across its multiple floors.
A central rotunda with eighteen Corinthian columns supports a coffered dome with a glass oculus that channels natural light into the interior space.
