This 1981 clip focuses on exterior shots of a red brick building on the National Institutes of Health campus in Bethesda, Maryland. 

The building is referred to by some as “building 1.” The building's facade, supported by 6 white pillars, reads “NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH.” Above these words is the seal of the U.S. Public Health Service.

The building has an evergreen front lawn with several bushy green and dark red trees. The sky is overcast. Next to the lawn is a sidewalk; several people walk down its path. 

Across the street from the building is a parking lot. A blue VW van is parked in this lot as well as other vehicles.
