The image is a vintage postcard featuring the United States Treasury Building in Washington, D.C. The building, a prominent example of Greek Revival architecture, houses the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
The Treasury Building was constructed in wings over a 35-year period starting in 1836.
It is located at the southwest corner of 15th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW, next to the White House.
The Department of the Treasury is responsible for managing federal finances, producing currency, collecting taxes, and paying the bills of the U.S.
A major architectural feature is the 466-foot unpedimented Ionic colonnade along 15th Street.
