Restoration of legislative building’s dome unveiled
For the first time in two years, the dome of the Legislative Building is exposed.
Hundreds of people turned out Monday night to see the big reveal after $21 million worth of restorative work was completed.
“Tonight we build on the legacy of our first premier, Walter Scott. Tonight, the dome shines again,” remarked Premier Brad Wall just seconds before he gave the crane operator the go ahead to remove the front panels of the structure.
Aided with dramatic music, unveiled was a shiny, copper dome which prompted applause from those in attendance.
