“On this project, Calcedo Construction Corporation was faced with the difficult task of restoring ornamental plastering, carved wooden doors, brass railings and marble floors to their original fine detail and assembling priceless chandeliers which were shipped piece by piece to the site from Czechoslovakia. Calcedo’s staff and its president, Mr. Tomei, successfully restored the rich architectural detail to its original condition throughout the building"...

Many of the craftsmen on the project were Italian and their love of fine construction and attention to intricate detail is clearly shown here, as it has been throughout many of the great buildings of the world. This building is a dignified representation of the Republic of
Czechoslovakia in the United States and is a testimony to the fine work of those masters
who reconstructed it and those who led them”

-His Excellency Dr. Sbanislav Suja, Ambassador
