- Description:
- This was the second state office building, at the southwest corner of South Washington Avenue and Allegan Street. It was built in 1871 and used for state government purposes until 1879 when the new capitol was completed. After that it held a combination of state offices and private enterprises. It was torn down in 1923. The flag over the road with a cross and crown in the top half may have been Knights Templar, and that and the buntings/decor on the state office building were perhaps done for one of the Knights Templar Conclaves that occurred in Lansing in the early 20th century. Parts of the original photograph at left and top were blanked out prior to the creation of this print.
