Iowa City, Iowa

Iowa City was established as Iowa's capital Jan. 21, 1839. The capitol building was constructed in 1842 and served as the state's capitol until 1857. Today, the old capitol building stands in the center of the University of Iowa campus. When the university isn’t using its mascot, the Hawkeye, as a logo, it uses the dome of the old capitol building. Read more on ArcGIS Story Maps.
