Carson City Nevada State Capitol (#1571)

Like others have discovered, its almost impossible to get a picture of the Nevada State Capitol Building due to it being surrounded by trees. It’s also small compared to most state capitols in the U.S., and not set in some sort of dramatic landscaping to make it look commanding – surprisingly subdued. To keep up with subdued, it’s not the same as other state capitols as the site of the legislature – the legislature meets in a different building, this is the site of the governor’s office. The building was completed in 1871.
