Description
Caption: "Capitol Building of New York State, Albany, N.Y., Sept. 7, 1934." New York State's Capitol Building was constructed between 1867 and 1899. The initial architect, Thomas Fuller, designed the first floor in a Classical or Romanesque style. He was replaced by Leopold Eidlitz and Henry Hobson Richardson, who designed the next two floors in a Renaissance style. The final architect to preside over the project was Isaac G. Perry, who completed the building in a Victorian-Romanesque style. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1979.
