Located on Alamo Plaza in Downtown San Antonio, across from the Alamo, the Hipolito F. Garcia Federal Building and United States Courthouse is a Beaux-Arts structure completed in 1937. Designed by architect Louis A. Simon, it was originally built to serve as the U.S. Post Office, Federal Office Building, and Courthouse. Constructed of steel, granite, limestone, and concrete, the building now houses the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas and holds a prominent position in the historic district. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
