You are correct Joe. Great job! Even though I'm a strong supporter of battlefield preservation, I always use the Old State Capitol as evidence that the meaning of an event can still remain, even though the physical nature of the location is long gone. The inside of the building was completely rebuilt in the 1960s and in the area where Lincoln made his "House Divided" speech, the room has been wired for sound, as that is where naturalization ceremonies are held.

Best
