Montgomery Chapter

| In selecting
Montgomery as the State Capitol, the legislature expressly
provided that the state should be put to no expense in
securing lands or in erecting a capitol building. Thus, the
citizens of the town immediately organized to secure the
"Goat Hill" site and begin erecting a building. Bonds for
$75,000 were issued by the municipality which were taken up
by local real estate dealers and investors. The Greek
Revival plan of the new capitol was drawn up by Stephen D.
Button; the contractors were B.F. Robinson and R.W.R.
Bardwell. The completed building was presented to the state
on December 6, 1847, at the beginning of the legislature's
first-ever biennial session. |

From the Civil War to Civil Rights and new visions for
tomorrow, Montgomery is steeped in history, tested by
rebellion and always courageous and changing. The Montgomery
Chamber of Commerce Convention & Visitor Bureau is the
source for visitors, meeting planners, and travel
information in Montgomery, Alabama. Visit the Capital City
