The Washington Legislative Building in Olympia as viewed across Capitol Lake. The Washington Legislative Building was completed in 1928. While it is similar to many state capitol buildings, it has the distinction of being the world's fourth tallest masonry dome. St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome, St. Paul's Cathedral in London and St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg are taller. Capitol Lake is an artificial lake created at the mouth of the Deschutes River where it empties into Puget Sound. Sharing the shores, but not seen is the original Olympia Brewery.
