An “information girl,” or receptionist, was stationed in the spacious lobby. The sales department and accounting department were separated from the lobby by counters. A telephone booth at the right of the entrance was at the disposal of visitors to the building.
The floors, except for in the private offices, were covered with battleship linoleum – the flooring gets its name from its battleship gray color, not because it was used on boats. The walls were finished in fir and stained a driftwood gray. This was accomplished with a chemical stain which gives the appearance of wood that has been floating in salt water.
The office of Robert W. Hunt, sales manager, was to the left of the lobby; general manager William H. Boner’s office was to the right.
