Nevada’s Capitol

Completed in 1871, Nevada’s splendid Victorian-era Capitol was built of sandstone from the quarry of the town’s founder, Abe Curry.  The octagon annex was added in 1907, the north and south wings in 1915.  Notable features are its Alaskan marble walls, French crystal windows, and elegant interior.
