Bill Graves, governor at the time had that rotunda fortified and the native Kansa Indian statue mounted on top as his legacy.
I remember the day they put it up and it had to come back down a few hours later because some bolts didn’t line up correctly. I’m not a big fan of the statue. It just doesnt look right. Love the name though. Ad Astra. That capital is a beautiful building and mural of John Brown (insane, murderous MF’er’er that he was) is stunning. Always thought it was a great place to field trip. |
I remember going up there when I was in 6th grade but I don’t remember being scared.

The George Brett statue icon is hilarious

About two years ago, I walked through the original North Carolina capitol building in Raleigh. They do not conduct their business there any more - It was tiny and cramped compared to the KS building ( which is not huge)
|
I have been in there but never gone up to the top. I thought they stopped allowing people to do that years ago.
