This is the Federal Building in Anchorage Alaska, which was built in 1941. The Art Deco style building is very substantial, and the building is one of several in Anchorage which show the extent of development in the city in the 1930s and 1940s. It was, and is, a very modern building for the port city, which might surprise those who wouldn't have expected this type of architecture and development for Anchorage in this, pre oil development, era.
The courtroom was, and is, a prominent feature of the building.
