Abstract
Description
The State House�s Renaissance Revival style Rotunda, designed by architect Lewis Broome, was completed in 1889. The building�s original Rotunda was destroyed by fire in 1885. Built as a grand entrance hall, the room contains numerous references to the State and nation, including eagles, swords, scales, and the New Jersey State Seal. The State House Rotunda was restored to its 1911 to 1913 appearance during a six-year restoration of the State House�s Executive Wing that culminated in 2023.
