Old Federal Building (Fairbanks, Alaska)
The Old Federal Building is a historic government building at Cushman Street and 3rd Avenue in Fairbanks, Alaska.

The building's Art Deco styling includes V-shaped grooves set in pilasters that separate columns of windows and aluminum panels. The grooves are repeated in concrete spandrels above the top row of windows. Interior decoration includes terrazzo flooring, copious use of marble in walls and floors, and a pressed copper ceiling in the courtroom. The building was designed by Washington, DC architect , and built by William "Mac" MacDonald, who also later built the Federal Building in Nome. It
