30 Department of the Interior South Building in Washington, D.C.

The Interior Department’s headquarters have been at this South Building since it was dedicated by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1936. The namesake for this structure designed by Waddy Butler Wood is Stewart Lee Udall. While he was the Secretary of the Interior for most of the 1960s, Udall is credited with a major expansion of the federal and national parks and monuments. These actions exemplified the department’s mission to manage and conserve the country’s natural resources and federal land.
