It has also been known as Federal Building. The building, designed in the Neoclassical form by Oscar Wenderoth, now houses the offices of the Chicago Title Company.[2][3] The two-story building's front facade features eight Greek Ionic columns. The reinforced concrete structure is finished with Wilkinson sandstone and granite quarried in Index.[2] On August 6, 1975, the building, then home to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, was bombed by an unknown assailant at the same time as a federal building in Tacoma.[4] The bureau turned the building over to the General Services Administration in the late 1990s, who prepared it for a possible sale. The city of Everett sought to acquire the building as the home to a museum, but faced competition from the Tulalip Tribes, who planned to house a post office in the building.[5] Ultimately, the building was acquired in 2000 by the Henry Cogswell College for use as its main campus and renovated at a cost of $2 million.[6] The college closed in 2006, selling the building to private developers in 2008 for $2.4 million.[7] The Chicago Title Company moved into the building in 2009.[8] References1. ^{{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{Registered Historic Places}}2. ^1 {{cite report |origyear=September 1975|date=January 7, 1976 |title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: U.S. Post Office and Customs House / Federal Building |url={{NRHP url|id=76001909}} |publisher=National Park Service |author=Elisabeth Walton Potter |accessdate=November 14, 2016}} with {{NRHP url|id=76001909|photos=y|title=photo from 1975}} 3. ^{{cite news |last=Winters |first=Chris |date=October 21, 2014 |title=Everett Post Office awaits new forwarding address |url=http://www.heraldnet.com/news/everett-post-office-awaits-new-forwarding-address/ |work=The Everett Herald |accessdate=November 14, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite news |date=August 6, 1975 |title=Tacoma, Everett buildings bombed |page=1 |work=The Seattle Times}} 5. ^{{cite news |last=Brooks |first=Diane |date=February 25, 1998 |title=Tulalips cover bets in bid for old Federal Building |page=B1 |work=The Seattle Times}} 6. ^{{cite news |last=Brooks |first=Diane |date=April 24, 2000 |title=Memories preserved in college's new home; Post office, Army, FBI among former tenants |page=B1 |work=The Seattle Times}} 7. ^{{cite news |last=Fetters |first=Eric |date=March 18, 2008 |title=Everett’s Cogswell building sells, will remain intact |url=http://www.heraldnet.com/business/everetts-cogswell-building-sells-will-remain-intact/ |work=The Everett Herald |accessdate=January 23, 2017}} 8. ^{{cite web |title=Chicago Title Moving to U.S. Federal Building |date=June 23, 2009 |url=http://www.costar.com/News/Article/Chicago-Title-Moving-to-US-Federal-Building/113041 |publisher=CoStar Group |accessdate=January 23, 2017}} 5 : Buildings and structures in Everett, Washington|National Register of Historic Places in Snohomish County, Washington|Neoclassical architecture in Washington (state)|Office buildings on the National Register of Historic Places in Washington (state)|Office buildings completed in 1917 |
