The Guam Congress Building, located in Chalan Santo Papa in Hagåtña, Guam, was built in 1949. It is a Modern Movement-style building that was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
It has also been known as the Guam Legislature Building and as 66-01-1102. It was a work of Pacific Island Buildings and of Brown & Root Pacific Bridge & Maxon. It has served as a capitol and as a courthouse building.[1]
It is significant for association with "the political events and peoples whose actions culminated in a political development that changed the civil status and governance of the Chamorro people and put an end to U.S. Naval military rule in 1950."[2]
The legislature moved to a new location in 1989 and two wings of the building were taken down; the building is used for some government offices.[2]
