North Carolina State Legislative Building, Legislative building in Raleigh, United States.
The North Carolina State Legislative Building features a three-story structure with separate chambers for the House of Representatives and Senate, connected by wide corridors.
Architect Edward Durell Stone designed this government facility in 1959 to replace the previous legislature housed in the North Carolina State Capitol since 1840.
The building entrance displays a 28-foot diameter terrazzo mosaic of the Great Seal of North Carolina, representing the state's governmental identity.
The Legislative Building remains open to the public Monday through Friday, allowing visitors to observe state government proceedings and legislative sessions.
Four interior roof gardens occupy the building corners, while brass doors weighing 1,700 pounds guard the entrance to each legislative chamber.
