Best Answer

Most likely you will have state, federal or local government buildings in your area. If you look at the building ( in most cases) you will see items related to ancient Greece. There usually is a portal, ironic columns, and the building is made or covered to have the look of marble or stone. Much of Washington DC is designed to look like buildings from ancient Greece since Greece was the home of the first democracy. Take your pick of the Jefferson memorial, the Lincoln memorial or the White House to see this "federalist" sytle.
