The Indiana Statehouse is the state capitol building of the U.S. state of Indiana. Housing the Indiana General Assembly, the Governor of Indiana, the state courts and other state officials, it is located in the state capital of Indianapolis at 200 West Washington Street. The design of Indianapolis architect Edwin May was selected in 1878, with a cornerstone laid on September 28, 1880. Construction was completed in October, 1888, supervised by architect Adolph Scherrer, May's chief draftsman, following's May's death in February 1880.

Architecture
Made of Indiana limestone and designed in classical Renaissance Revival style, the architecture of the Indiana Statehouse was influenced by the national Capitol. As architecturally beautiful as it is functional, the interior is marked by a stained glass dome, marble floors and steps, granite columns, an ornate balcony, and period wall and ceiling designs. Flowering trees and shrubs as well as historic markers and monuments dot the Statehouse grounds.
