The New York State Capitol

Treasures of New York explores the New York State Capitol building, hailed an architectural masterpiece when it was originally completed in 1899. It took 32 years to build the ornate structure, an eclectic mixture of Gothic revival, Romanesque and Moorish influences, but only about an hour for flames to severely damage the so-called “fireproof” seat of state government 12 years later.

I love DC Banks on Tuesday at 8:50. Last night was a different cast, especially the blond actress(just below DC Banks). What’s going on with this series? Is it over, will it return? Really want to know. Thanks. E. V.

I love “Treasures of New York”! Each episode makes me realize over and over how my childhood and the rest of my life have been ennobled by the people who cared to develop art in the subways and create the beautiful grand building of the American Museum of Natural History.
