Perched on Capitol Hill overlooking downtown Salt Lake City, the Utah State Capitol is a Neoclassical revival structure designed by architect Richard K.A. Kletting and constructed between 1912 and 1916. The Corinthian-style building houses the chambers and offices of the Utah State Legislature alongside the executive offices of the governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, and state auditor. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, the capitol underwent extensive restoration from 2004 to 2008, during which two new buildings were added to the complex, public spaces were restored to their original appearance, and a base isolation system was installed to protect the structure against earthquakes of up to 7.3 magnitude. The building was rededicated and resumed operations in January 2008.
