spandrels. Above the Fourth Street entrance, and flanking the Kellogg Boulevard entrance, are relief sculptures carved by Lee Lawrie
.
The interior design in the "Zigzag Moderne" style drew its inspiration from the
Indian God of Peace by Carl Milles (later renamed Vision of Peace[4]). Other features includes woodwork fashioned out of twenty-three different species of wood, and also uses five different types of imported marble. Murals were painted by John W. Norton while the six bronze elevator doors were made by Albert Stewart.[3][5]
