The U.S. Civil Service Commission Building is a 1911 six story brick building near the White House in Washington D.C.. It housed the Civil Service Commission from 1911 to 1932.[1] It currently houses various offices for the Executive Branch and the U.S Trade Representatives. Unlike many federal buildings of the time, it was built by a private developer for the government.
