This Old State House - 1998
Conceived by Governor Huey P. Long, the" new" Louisiana State Capitol building is a marvel of Art Deco design. Recent restoration efforts have recreated the structure's past glory, repairing the hand-crafted appointments and architectural elements that make this historic skyscraper unique. Jeff Duhe is your host for a tour of the renovated capitol, venturing into the beautiful, seldom-seen chambers that have stood witness to Louisiana's backroom political history.
