Bank building

I went over this article recently and noticed that only a tiny bit at the end is actually dedicated to the structure itself. There seems to be enough source material to expand the description of building, yet it has not been done. I feel that an edifice with as much architectural significance as this deserves a more detailed physical documentation, especially as it is a U.S. National Historic Landmark (!). Is there a reason the article is this way? Chevsapher (talk) 02:14, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Shouldn't information on the bank building be put in a separate article from the bank institution? Imagine looking up the Federal Reserve and finding an infobox on the architectural style rather than its function in the financial system. That's what we have here.

First public building with an eagle?

I have heard that this building was the first public building with an eagle on the facade. If someone can find a reference for this, it should be in the article. --DThomsen8 (talk) 10:07, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
