Friends of the Oklahoma Capitol

I can see clearly now...

The big board outside the southeast entrance has been updated. Less than 100 windows to go before they are all fully restored.

After the original stained glass in the saucer dome was removed to make way for the new Capitol dome, it was crated and put in storage. As part of the restoration project, most of it will be re-integrated into the Capitol on the Ground floor.

The granite seals on the upper plaza are getting a facelift as part of the project. They have been given a texture to prevent slipping and the depressions are being painted to make them more readable.

This graphic appeared in the Daily Oklahoman 92 years ago today. Nine years after construction, state agencies were outgrowing the Capitol.

Scaffolding is coming down on the south facade of the Capitol. The restored limestone looks fantastic!

The restoration of the Oklahoma State Capitol continues. You will like the renovated west entrance.
