The Carl Albert Federal Building is a courthouse of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma located in McAlester, Oklahoma. Built in 1914, the facility was renamed in 1985 in honor of former Speaker of the House Carl Albert.〔(A bill to name the Federal Building in McAlester, Oklahoma, the "Carl Albert Federal Building" ) (September 21, 1984).〕 ==Significance==
The city of McAlester was founded in 1870. It was named for an early settler of the area, James McAlester, who set up a tent store where the heavily traveled Texas Road crossed the California Trail. Later when the railroad was established, the area began to flourish. As the area grew, so did the need for a postal facility. Built in 1914, the building served as the main Post Office for the area until the late 1960s when the Postal Service relocated.〔(General Services Administration page on the Carl Albert Federal Building ).〕 The building continues to serve, as it has since construction, as the Federal Courthouse for the area.〔(Federal Judicial Center - Historic Federal Courthouses page on the Carl Albert Federal Building ).〕 The building was named the "Carl Albert Federal Building and Courthouse" in honor of the 46th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives at a formal ceremony on November 27, 1985.〔
