This Federal Building and Post Office was completed in 1964 under the designs of architect Reynolds, Smith & Lee. U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida and as the main post office for downtown Gainesville.

As a rule of thumb I usually stay away from Federal courthouses however I admire the design of many such facilities...
Chris, My first thought was 60s when I saw the concrete ribbons! Reminds me of postage stamps from the era :)
Paul - I've only been inside that building once, but the outside is just different for our downtown area.
Bill & Liz: I thought of using this photo/crop for a "guess what building this is" for a Gainesville area post. One of our local newspapers do that. It's a hoot trying to recognize parts of a building.
