United States Federal Building and Courthouse is located on the North East end of the Kennedy Plaza (formerly known as Exchange Place) -- opposite the City Hall building. This classical Beaux Arts style building was constructed in 1908. Originally built as offices for postal, customs, and federal courts, the building is now solely used by the United States District Court.
In front of the US Federal Building sits the sculpture "America and Providence," by by J. Massey Rhind, 1908.
