Located in Terre Haute, Indiana, the Terre Haute Post Office and Federal Building is a three-story PWA Moderne structure completed in 1934 and designed by local architects Miller & Yeager. Built as a Public Works Project during the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration at a cost of around $450,000, the building opened to the public in 1935 and originally housed the post office, Social Security Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Internal Revenue Service, and federal court. Its federal courtroom features a mural titled "The Signing of the Magna Carta" by Frederick Webb Ross. Placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, the building was transferred to Indiana State in 2007 and underwent a $30-million renovation before becoming home to the Indiana State University Scott College of Business, which held its first classes in the building during Fall 2012.
