1967, Carlisle B. Guy and Associates. Addition, Leland B. Roberts. 818 N. Cascade Ave. (near northwest corner of W. Dale St.)

One of the world's most extensive collections of coins and paper money is displayed in this boxy abstraction with a set-back second level. A framework of steel girders at the front of the second level is repeated in a smaller structural grid in a cutaway portion of the roof near the recessed entrance. This is also the international headquarters of the American Numismatic Association, including its research library.
