Originally known as the Pierpont Morgan Library, this institution is located at Madison Avenue and 36th Street in New York City. The Palladian style building was designed by architect Charles Follen McKim, and completed in 1906. The original entrance, as depicted in this photo, was at 33 E. 36th Street. The Morgan was made a public institution by the founder's son, J.P. Morgan Jr., in 1924. The building was declared a national historic landmark and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. The Morgan Library & Museum web site.

Thanks for the added detail about the building. We'll add information to the source data and reload the description to Flickr.

This is an awesome photo of a historic building (it was also uploaded by OSU here and credited to Frank Patterson).

The "Oregon Caves Resort" was the first permanent building constructed in what would become Oregon Caves National Monument. Completed in 1924, the building was known as the "Chalet".

Today the Chalet stands beside the majestic Chateau (now often called "the Lodge"). The Chateau was completed in 1934, at which time the Chalet became the gift shop and guide residence, and continues to house Park Service employees to this day. (Male park guides at Oregon Caves were/are known as "cavemen", females as "cave princesses".)
