Back in the mid-90s it was still being used, but I forget what for. (My father was a career Census Bureau employee, and they had a take-your-kids-to-work day around 1995 or so, this was part of the tour.) It definitely had some sort of furnace in it, so I think your guess about steam was probably correct, at least at the time. Not sure if it's still used now at all.J.

I've spoken with a couple people who have worked at the Census Bureau that said they think it still provides steam to the surrounding offices, but not any real documentation to confirm that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00711743891690718964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8131194240762356738.post-21160710456711549532013-08-29T11:54:16.212-04:002013-08-29T11:54:16.212-04:00Any more info on the smokestack building.
