The Capitol of Washington was completed in 1928 and is home to the Washington State Legislature and the offices of the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, and State Treasurer. The dome is 278 feet high with broad based wings that surround the central structure.
There are 42 steps leading up to the capitol building, specifically designed to recognize Washington as the 42nd state. The lamp above the rotunda can fit a full-size Volkswagen Beetle if put in sideways, and the faces and human figures are life-size. All lamps, and Roman firepots in the rotunda, were made by Tiffany’s.
