The building is located at 2107 Massachusetts Avenue NW, on Embassy Row.The chancery building consists of two adjacent buildings. One was constructed in 1885 and expanded with an additional four floors in 1907. The other, Depew House, was built in 1901. The two are "probably the oldest properties owned by the Government of India abroad." Depew House, made of granite and limestone, was built by T. Morris Murray in 18th-century French architecture style. Noted residents include U.S. Senator Peter G. Gerry (1914-1915), Undersecretary of the Treasury Ogden L.
