Built in the 1830s
Andrew Jackson served until 1837 and Martin Van Buren followed. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 led to the forced removal of the Cherokee, Choctaw and other southeastern nations. The Panic of 1837 ended a long boom in land and canal building, and Greek Revival was by then the common style for anything meant to look public.
