Adam got this for me while he was on tour.
With its huge dome, the Capitol is the most impressive building in Washington, housing the legislative branch of the U.S. Government. Begun in 1793, when George Washington, our first president, laid the cornerstone, the partially-built structure was burned by British troops during the War of 1812. Although considered to have been completed in 1850, later enlargements have been added.
