        It's eery that it hasn't changed at all. It still has it's character - well, at least on the outside if you get my drift.

        Ambitious for the time. You know, everybody who was anybody in politics back then expected Congress to be the more powerful branch, and this building reflects it. Contrast it with Independence Hall:pic.twitter.com/lVE1thhv1n
