Nevada State Capital Building: Raising the Roof

Posted by Boomer | Old Nevada | Friday 19 June 2009 7:49 pm

This is the seventh in the series of blog posts that present the the Nevada State Capital Building in all of its yesteryear glory and we’re coming up on the end. In the previous posts, you got a sense of of what the Capital Building looked like just before its deconstruction. We’re finally going to put the floors in, paint the walls, and put on a roof. Again, no narrative because the pictures pretty much speak for themselves.

1. Yo Old Capital Building.
2. The Three Branches.
3. The Interior (before).
4. Sledgehammers.
5. Open Skies.
6. The Walls Go Up.

Please remember to credit the Nevada State Library and Archives if you use these pictures and, as always, the facts in this series are derived from my weak memory so I welcome any and all corrections and recollections of those days gone by. As I said, we’re almost to the end of our journey, but next time we’ll see pictures of the Capital grounds had politics not gotten in the way.
