The Treasury Building and Its Historic Groundings
A historic account traces the Treasury building’s location and evolution from 1800 onward. It notes Jackson’s 1833 declaration to place the structure east of the White House, the 1833 fire that destroyed the earlier wing, and subsequent expansions including the 1867 north front. The structure’s Grecian design features Ionic porticos and a granite western front, with over three thousand employees and public access hours from 10 am to 2 pm.
