Makeover for the Capitol


 

The US Capitol is an impressive and beautiful building that sits at one end of The Mall.  But like many buildings in DC built around the Civil War it is getting old.  There are cracks in the dome that I guess cannot be ignored anymore.  It is a piece of art as well and you can't just haphazardly  slap some glue and paint on it and declare that it is fixed.  There is a plan and a process and it is very interesting.  I found this link that gives an overview of what is to be done.  I hope you found it as interesting as I did.
