The Washington State Capitol in Olympia, a large domed classical building with long columned wings, stands across broad lawns with curving paths and lamp posts. Bare deciduous trees frame the foreground, with a dark evergreen ridge behind the building. The structure is the Legislative Building, completed in 1928, the centerpiece of the capitol campus on a hill above downtown Olympia at the southern end of Puget Sound.
