North Dakota State Capitol
The State Capitol building is a 241.67 feet (73.7 m) tall, 19-story, Art Deco
skyscraper. It is the tallest building in North Dakota and is known as the
Skyscraper on the Prairie.
At the tower's base is the west wing, where the two chambers of the North Dakota
Legislative Assembly meet when in session. The North Dakota Supreme Court meets
in the east wing.
The 18th floor of the Capitol is not used for offices as the other floors are,
but rather as an observation deck; it is the highest vantage point in the state.
