For nearly a century, the State Capitol has been one of Utah’s most prominent landmarks. Designed by local architect Richard K. A. Kletting, the Capitol has been home to state government since its opening in 1916.
From 2004 to 2008, the Utah State Capitol underwent one of the largest historical preservation projects in the United States. In addition to safe-guarding the building against the risk of an earthquake, the project also repaired and restored the original beauty and artwork of the Capitol. Each year, thousands of people visit the Capitol to witness its modern magnificence and historic significance.
For many years, the leaders of the early Utah Territory and the young State of Utah operated out of borrowed rooms and buildings. The construction of a state capitol was a long-awaited project. Today’s Capitol Hill Complex is the result of more than a century of hard work, visionary design, and careful renovation.
From Arsenal Hill to Capitol Hill
In 1888, Salt Lake City donated 20 acres of land—then known as Arsenal Hill for its previous use as private munitions storage—to the Utah Territory for the construction of a capitol building.
Only in 1909, years after Utah became the 45th state in the Union, did real progress unfold. The state legislature approved a seven-man Capitol Commission to oversee the design and construction of a state capitol. The budget was set at $2.5 million, but funding remained a problem until 1911, when the state received nearly $800,000 in inheritance taxes from the estate of Union Pacific Railroad president E. H. Harriman. The legislature responded with a $1 million bond, and the project was underway.
The Capitol Commission issued a design competition, and eight architects from across Utah and the U.S. submitted their designs. Utah architect Richard K.A. Kletting won the state bidding process with his final building and landscape plans, and Capitol construction commenced in 1912. The building was completed in 1916, but financial difficulties prevented the full realization of Kletting’s original plans for the complex.
A massive renovation project from 2004 to 2008 not only restored the Capitol’s original beauty but also fulfilled many of Kletting’s early visions for the Hill. Today, the Capitol building contains two active legislative chambers, a ceremonial supreme court chamber, and the working offices of top state officials. The Capitol Hill Complex has grown to include Senate, House, and state office buildings. Inside the Capitol and around its grounds, a wide variety of original artwork, treasured artifacts, and historical monuments are on display.

utah state capitol.
i took our dog, jacob, and went and explored our state capitol. it's located five minutes from where i currently live and i think it was finally time to go explore the utah state capitol complex which consisted of a vietnam war memorial, utah law enforcement memorial, and a mormon battalion monument.
the state capitol is the house of government for utah. the building houses the chamber and offices of the governor, attorney general, lieutenant governor, the state auditor and their staffs. the capitol is the main building of the complex and it overlooks downtown salt lake city.
i had a great time exploring this building. i've been here a couple of years ago but i don't think i've been inside because the beauty of the inside caught me by complete surprise.

Utah State Capitol Hill and Government Building in Salt Lake City during Restoration and Renovation
Views of Utah State Capitol Hill and Government Building in Salt Lake City during the Restoration and Renovation Works. The following Wikipedia article covers the role of this building in the governing of Utah -- The Utah State Capitol is the house of government for the U.S. state of Utah. The building houses the chambers of the Utah State Legislature, the offices of the Governor of Utah and Lieutenant Governor of Utah, along with other supporting offices for the Government of Utah. The capitol is the main building of the Utah State Capitol Complex, which is located on Capitol Hill, overlooking downtown Salt Lake City. The Neoclassical revival, Corinthian style building was designed by architect Richard K.A. Kletting, and built between 1912 and 1916. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Beginning in 2004 the capitol experienced a major restoration and renovation project. The project added two new buildings to the capitol complex, while restoring many of the capitol's public spaces to their original appearance. One of the largest projects during the renovation was the addition of a base isolation system which will allow the building to survive as much as a 7.3 magnitude earthquake. After completion of the renovations, the building was rededicated and resumed normal operation in January 2008. The relevant Wikipedia article is on the following link --
