Doric colonnades give a superb air of stateliness to the walls, and the cornice is embellished with statuesemblematic of the great commercial nations. Larger groups representing the continents, America, Europe. Africa, and Asia, by Daniel C. French, flank eitherside of the main entrance. A cartouche emblematic of the American Nation, by Carl Bitter, is the crowning feature of the facade. Cass Gilbert, Architect.
