State House Dome Project

In 2014, the Maine State House underwent a renovation project on its copper dome, which is topped by a statue of the Lady of Wisdom made of copper overlaid with gold. The current style dome of copper was originally installed during a renovation to the State House in 1909-1910. Preparatory work began in March. The $1.3 million restoration project spanned several months and was completed in November. These are some photos taken over the length of the project.
