State Capitol

Nebraska


From the outside, Nebraska's remarkable 1932 400ft-high state capitol represents the apex of phallic architecture (like many tall buildings in the Plains, it's often called 'the penis on the prairie'), while the symbolically rich interior curiously combines classical and art deco motifs. Enjoy views from the 14th-floor observation decks.
