Generally known as Soldiers and Sailors Hall, and officially the Soldiers and Sailors National Military Museum and Memorial. Of our half-dozen (at least) buildings inspired by the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, this is the most literal interpretation. Henry Hornbostel was the architect.
We also have pictures of the rear, the illuminated interior in 1913, some decorative reliefs, more of the front of the building, the front at night, the northeast side of the building, the front in 2000 (which doesn’t look much different), a lamppost, some roof ornaments, the front with some history, “Parade Rest” and “The Lookout” by Frederick Hibbard, “America” by Charles Keck, and a comparison of this building with a speculative restoration of the original Mausoleum.
