Description

The Department of Commerce Building is in a large block bounded by 15th Street (left), 14th Street, Constitution Avenue (bottom) and Pennsylvania Avenue. It is part of the Federal Triangle of government buildings. It was built in 1927-1932. It has been renamed Herbert C. Hoover Building, for the former Secretary of Commerce and President.

This photo shows much of downtown Washington as it looked in 1965. Part of the Treasury Department is at the left edge of the photo. The Willard Hotel is the white building across Pennsylvania Avenue. The view is northeast from the Washington Monument.
