I did. Did you know the capitol building in Georgia is the only one with a roof covered in gold? Or that they have a double barrel cannon out front?


I'm thinking that Colorado's capitol building in Denver is also covered in gold. Can't say for sure if it's "real" gold, but it was always shiny (untarnished). Bert? Norahsbed? Help me out here.

The capitol bldg. In Denver also has a roof covered in gold. It is gold leaf. I can remember them repairing it back about 10 years ago when I lived there. Quite expensive if I remember correctly.

Spent 31 years there. Lived in Highland's Ranch prior to retiring to Florida 8 yrs ago. Also lived in Golden and Lakewood while there.


"From" Southwest Denver (0-12), but did most of my juvenile delinquent stuff in Arvada. Not familiar with Highland's Ranch, but Golden, Morrison, and anything near Red Rocks Amphitheater was right in my wheelhouse.

It's gold leaf, hammered out into a sheet.

Oops, already answered. LOL
