- Notes:
- This drawing was previously identified as WTU*081*002 as a Walter drawing for the extension to Robert Mills Treasury Building. However, the massing is incorrect, the shape of the windows at the rusticated base are curved instead of square, and the columns are in a different style. Also, it does not resemble the actual Walter drawing for the west facade (1853) cataloged separately.
- Forms part of: Walter, Thomas Ustick. Architectural drawings collection.
