Talk:Florida State Capitol

message: Is the popular opinion that it looks like a phallus worthy of mention? —Keenan Pepper 23:40, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunately, every picture chose for the article appears too have been selected for having angles that completely obscure the genitalian design. If someone did not know, they would have no idea why it is considered phallic. But unlike most ostensibly phallic buildings, this one includes testicles. We need a better picture.

message: I added :Image:Tallahassee old capitol 1842.png near the "old capitol" section.  All I know is in the image description, which is from a 1945 Library of Congress pamphlet which included this image.  But this building does not resemble well the current "Old Capitol" building.  "THE OLD STATE CAPITOL AT TALLAHASSEE" probably is the original caption, which implies that in 1842 the pictured building was called the "Old Capitol" thus there was a new one by 1842.  I suspect the museum in the "Old Capitol" building might have more information about all the capitol buildings.  (SEWilco 07:34, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Really, how tall is the new Florida State Capitol Building?  A state website lists it has being exactly 300 feet tall.  Another number I've seen says that the observation deck floor/top floor (floor 22) is 307 feet above the plaza level, and then I see a number of 322 feet for it, too.  Can someone contact the capitol building to find this out for sure?  I may shoot them and email to try and figure this out. --Criticalthinker (talk) 02:22, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

message: I completely understand the desire to emphasise the Old Capitol at the expense of the current one.  But as the article is about the current capitol building, it seems inappropriate to have it obscured by its predecessor.  At the very least the lead image should be of just the newer, uglier capitol building. 107.3.44.127 (talk) 17:31, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

message: I don't know what use to make of this information, but in a contest no earlier than 2003 by Cabinet Magazine for the most phallic building in the world, the winner was the water tower in Ypsilanti, Michigan (https://web.archive.org/web/20031203214312/http://www.cabinetmagazine.org:80/phallic/winner.php). 
However, the same contest reported that 237 people, presumably Floridians, sent in pictures of the Florida Capitol - "by far the largest response to any building". (https://web.archive.org/web/20031222044258/http://www.cabinetmagazine.org:80/phallic/mostvotes.php) 
Other nominees: http://cabinetmagazine.org/events/phallic/nominees.php
I based the date of the contest on what it says on the page and the link to this https://web.archive.org/web/20031008223611/http://slate.msn.com:80/id/2085471/entry/2085747/
If I put it in the article, I'm pretty sure someone will take it out immediately. deisenbe (talk) 19:12, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
