History
The building was completed in 1910. It served as the D.C. Court of Appeals until 1952, when the U.S. Court of Military Appeals took it over. It was designed by the Architect of the Capitol, Elliott Woods, to be compatible with the Washington City Hall (1820), designed by George Hadfield and Robert Mills.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
When nominated in 1973, it was serving the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.
