Des Moines Register February 9, 1975

Architect Harvey Henry, foreground, points out detail of an old fireplace in Old Capitol to Harold Brender, general superintendent for the Viggo M. Jensen Co. of Coralville. The firm is doing the Old Capitol remodeling. The fireplace is one of several found in the walls of the old building. "When everything’s done," commented Architect Harvey Henry, who acts as Construction Management Consultant, "it will feel like you’re stepping back 100 years when you walk in the door."

This is the fireplace later as the finish work was underway
