| dc.description.abstract | The U.S. Customs House, Courthouse, and Post Office was originally built in 1876 by architect James G. Hill. The building has undergone many renovations and additions, but it was last renovated in 1983 by architects Thorn, Howe, Stratton, and Strong. It is located at 1 South Front Street in Downtown Memphis, and is part of the University of Memphis’ campus. It is in the neo-classical architecture style. The façade of the second story has a colonnade going across its entire length. The columns of the colonnade are part of the Corinthian order and are extremely ornate. There are many windows with fanlights above them and framed by rounded arches. The front door is surrounded by metal which is full of bas relief ornamentation. | en_US |
