Missouri Capitol (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missouri_State_Capitol says: "The fifth Capitol (which is at the current site) was completed in 1840, for approximately $350,000, with some claiming that there were bribes and kickbacks. This also burned on February 5, 1911 when it was struck by lightning. " "A total of 69 architecture firms submitted for the competition, from which a short list of 11 was chosen. Tracy & Swarthout from New York was ultimately selected." The new capitol was completed in 1917 and occupied in 1918. See www.flickr.com/photos/99491151@N00/3804356607/ for recent pictures

    TVL1970 has twice misspelled the name Swarthout in the tags he added.

    DIA article on the Casino. It was designed by Sir William Chambers.

    I was there once, a great place to visit. It looks better today than it does in this photograph.

    Yes indeed; and it has been so well restored!
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The Archiseek article includes floorplans of the building. "For such an architecturally important building, the Casino is deceptively small – only fifty feet square to the outer columns. Yet the interior contains three floors of accommodation. In plan it is a greek cross with each projecting elevation framed by a pair of columns." "The decoration is also functional – the urns contain chimneys while the outermost columns contain the down pipes from the gutters so as not to spoil the elevations."

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Architecture, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    This is actually, the Old Irish Parliament Buildings which were sold to the progenitor of the Bank of Ireland. I think the title should be changed to reflect the correct name. The parliament was dissolved by act of Union at the start of the 19th century. It is still one of the Georgian set-pieces in the capital.
  • Fast Level said:
    I wouldnt change the name considering by the time this print was made the building was owned by Band of Ireland.. perhaps add in "former Parliament House" - but the "Correct" name is definitely Bank of Ireland. I could be wrong but... if it is printed on the image itself then it must have been Bank of Ireland at the time..

    Wow this is amazing, College Green without all the people, cars and buses... -- Seen in a discussion of the group "Flickr Commons" (?)

    Dunwho - you clearly do not subscribe to the view in geographical circles that to name something is to own it! :) Here's a question for you - if it was an image of the Parthenon from the 18th century would you describe it as a stable - as that is what it was used for at the time?
