Built in 1932, the United States Post Office and Courthouse in Baton Rouge is a limestone-clad three-story Art Deco structure designed by New Orleans architect Moise H. Goldstein under the supervision of the Treasury Department's Office of the Supervising Architect. The building features a slightly projected central bay accented by four engaged, fluted Ionic pilasters, combining Art Deco and Moderne architectural elements. Historically serving as a post office, courthouse, and government office building, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
