Detalles

* This mansion may seem out of place amongst commercial and government buildings, but 100 years ago those blocks were covered in houses, some even larger than the Governor's Mansion.
* There's too much to say about the largest State Capital building in the country. It's architecture tells dozens of wild tales. We'll let you in on a few of them from outside on the south lawn.
