Description
The front entrance to the Louisiana's capitol building opens directly into the four-story, rectangular Memorial Hall. The Hall is 124 feet (38 m) long and 40 feet (10 m) wide; it is often referred to as a "rotunda" despite not being round as it takes the place of one in a traditional domed capitol. Embedded in the floor, in the center of Memorial Hall, is a bronze plaque 10 feet (3.0 m) in diameter and weighing 3,290 pounds (1,490 kg). Solis Seiferth designed this bronze plaque. His architectural firm Weis, Dreyfous, and Seiferth oversaw the design and construction of the building itself. The center of the plaque depicts a relief map of Louisiana showing parish boundaries and seats,while the circular edge depicts all 64 parishes. The Ouachita Parish section is pictured here.
