  • Welcome to the South Dakota State Capitol Building
    Welcome to the South Dakota State Capitol Building SELF GUIDED TOUR SCRIPT OF SOUTH DAKOTA STATE CAPITOL BUILDING This booklet has been designed to give our guests a more meaningful tour of our State Capitol and historic points on the Capitol Complex. It will provide historic data and identify a variety of features that visitors will encounter in the State Capitol. This handout is designed to assist you on your walking tour of the Capitol, starting at the Capitol Annex entrance on the North side of the building. 1 SOUTH DAKOTA CAPITOL CONSTRUCTION The South Dakota State Capitol Building was constructed between 1905 and 1910. The more than 114,000 square foot structure was constructed of a variety of materials including native field stone, Indiana limestone, and Vermont and Italian marble. The structure is 161 feet tall, 190 feet wide, and 292 feet long, and features hundreds of hand-crafted materials including carved woodwork and marble, special cast brass, and hand laid stone. The Capitol Building was designed and built for just under $1,000,000 by Minneapolis architects C.E. Bell and M.S. Detwiler. It is a modified version of the Montana State Capitol in Helena. The current estimated value of the South Dakota Capitol is nearly $58,000,000. Government agencies moved into the Capitol Building in the summer of 1910 from a small wooden building which was located at the Southwest corner of the Capitol grounds near the corners of Capitol Avenue and Nicollet Avenue. The building referred to as the “Capitol Annex” is located immediately North of the original State Capitol Building.

  • Chairman Jeff Longbine Senate Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance Kansas State Capitol 300 SW 10Th Ave
    Chairman Jeff Longbine Senate Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance Kansas State Capitol 300 SW 10th Ave. Topeka, KS 66612 RE: Testimony in SUPPORT of SB 288 Chairman Longbine and members of the Committee: I want to thank you and the members of the Senate Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance for holding an important hearing regarding Senate Bill 288 and the economic benefits it will bring to small rural communities across Kansas. I am a sixth generation Kansan on the matriarch side of my family and a fifth generation Kansan on the patriarch side, so economic development for Kansas is near and dear to my heart. Whenever I am asked where I grew up, I reply that I am a Kansan who happens to work in Texas. Even though I office in Dallas, Texas, I currently operate a generational grain farm once owned by my great-great grandfather in Harvey County and have various other commercial and residential property holdings in Hesston, Kansas as well. When back home, I attend a small white wooden church on the prairie of Highland Township in Harvey County built by my great-great-great grandparents in which each of my sibling, parents and generations of grandparents for more than 100 years have been married, including my wife and me. It is in the graveyard of that small prairie church that my wife and I will be laid to rest alongside generations of family who settled Kansas and Harvey County. Small towns like Hesston and economically challenged counties like Harvey County are the reason I enthusiastically support Senate Bill 288.
