Capitol Ohio : 102 - Foundation
The foundation walls of the Ohio Statehouse were laid in 1839, but the building was not completed until 1861. The cornerstone, an ordinary-looking block in the foundation, was difficult to locate after the restoration of the 1990s and should not be confused with the date stone on the outside of the Statehouse.
