How can we improve this article?[edit]

I have added a gallery of the Capitol Building itself. I also have some decent published sources on the building itself. Can anyone else think of things we could add to improve the article?Coal town guy (talk) 18:04, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is NOT a 1925 building[edit]

The specific building of the current State Capitol complex in Charleston WV was dedicated in 1932. In 1925, per Cass Gilbert, and per the Cass Gilbert Society was under construction in 1925. Here is the Cass Gilbert Society link on the matter http://www.cassgilbertsociety.org/works/wv-capitol/ The book, for the state capital is named Cass Gilberts West Virginia State Capitol, has an ISBN of ISBN-10: 1938228464 . I own a copy, its accepted by the WV State Culture and History division as pretty much the reference on that building. In 1925, as I recall it from research, they had just completed one of the wings, the building itself NO. Please do feel free to take a look at the above data. It is a fascinating read. But to state its a 1925 building is false.Coal town guy (talk) 13:05, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
