This picture was submitted by MG in 2008. He writes: "This capitol is the tallest of all non-skyscraper [state] capitols [in the US], even taller than the nation's capitol building [in Washington, D.C.]. It is the 6th and current building, having to be built after the population boom back in the 1800s due to Illinois' fertile land. Ground was broken in 1869, and it was finished twenty years later in 1889." |

This second photo was sent in by Dan Heuser in 2011. He writes: "This urinal can be found in a small and hidden restroom in the basement of the state capitol building. I assume it was put there for security guards, which are stationed at an entrance nearby. The most interesting part is that the restroom does not have a toilet, only a urinal and a sink. This makes me wonder what the security guards have to do when they have to take care of more serious business." |
