Preliminary Sketches for De-
partment's New Home
Near Completion.
STRUCTURE WILL BE PUT
BETWEEN 18TH AND 18TH
Edifce Would Be Constructed,
Then Employees and Files Moved
In to Save Rent.

A new building for the Post Office
Department, between Twelfth and
Thirteenth streets on Pennsylvania
avenue, may be the next monumental
structure to arise in the so-called Fed
eral triangle.
This appeared likely today when it
was learned that the project now is
probably farther along than any other
of the great buildings to be erected in
the triangle.
Land is being acquired by condem-
nation proceedings and plans are being
drawn for the structure by William A.
Delano, architect, of New York, who is
q member Of the Treasury Department
Board of Architectural ConSultants
Preliminary sketch plans virtually
have been completed, and Mr.. Delano's
firm also is to make the working draw
ings for this building.
The new Post ONCE Department
Building is to be situated between the
Grand Plaza and the Great Circle in
the Federal Triangle, so that it will
have two concave sides, facing east and
west. It will extend from Twelfth to
Thirteenth street and from Pennsyl-
vania avenue back to adioin another
building to be erected at the corner of
Twelfth and B streets for the General
Accounting ONCE.
The general plan is to construct the
new Post once Building and then move
the employees and files of the depart
ment directly into the new structure
This is considered preferable to moving
the department out into temporary
quarters while their old building is being
torn down and new one reconstructed
on the same site. The first plan saves
one whole move and much rent
Congress has authorized total limit
of cost of $40, SOC, 900 for the Post ONCE
Department Building, which will be in
one of the choice spots in the triangle.
