About this subject

A wide view of the United States Gold Depository at Fort Knox, Kentucky: a low, blocky granite-faced building with a stepped upper story, dark barred windows and a central entrance, set on a broad green lawn with a curving drive. Two American flags fly from poles on the roof against a pink-and-blue sky.
