Historic Hood River
Oregon’s First Capitol
10-4-2023
Notes
This is a nice view from the Alta Walter album of Oregon’s first state capitol building. You can read its interesting history here- why it wasn’t built until almost 20 years after statehood, and how it was destroyed in a spectacular fire in 1935. It was replaced by our “modernistic” capitol building in 1938.
