STATE CAPITOL BUILDING
& CAPITOL COMPLEX, PHOENIX, ARIZONA
Constructed of Arizona tufa stone, the original
building was dedicated February 25, 1901. Built on
donated grounds at a cost of $135,744.29. The land
donated was a inclusion in the agreement when the
Territorial Capitol was moved from Prescott. The first
addition to the building was made in 1918, another in
1939, and finally, the two front wings in 1960. The
entire copper roof, which weighs 13 tons and is
valued at $50,000.00 was donated by the Arizona
Mining Association. The dome, which is Tedlar
covered, will remain bright and shiny indefinitely. The
other buildings in the area are part of the Capitol
Complex.
