It was designed as Niagara Falls' Federal Building, and housed not only the Main Post Office, but also the Collector of Customs and other Federal offices. In his address at the dedication of the Corner-Stone in 1906, the Niagara Falls Gazette quoted the Hon. Mayor O.W. Cutler: "Being erected on the highest eminence in Niagara county, its towering structure will ever serve as a monument to the suremacy of our government.
