Summary
Washington’s Capitol Campus is almost done with its $263 million makeover — a historic upgrade blending old architecture with modern needs. The Irving Newhouse building, fully replaced last year, set the stage. Now, the Joel Pritchard building wraps up this summer, transforming a former library into House offices, while the John L. O’Brien building finishes its top floors by December. All three projects, funded by the state capital budget, tackle safety, overcrowding, and outdated infrastructure — with everything ready for lawmakers to move in before the 2027 session. Construction barriers will soon vanish as the Capitol emerges sleeker, smarter, and ready for the future. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
