The cost of construction work on the Capitol Square Project in Cheyenne is expected to run about $30 million over original estimates but the extra costs were offset by reductions in other areas, keeping the project within budget.
After nearly two decades of setting aside funds and working on design and construction, renovations to the state Capitol and Herschler State Office Building are nearly complete, a Wyoming State Construction Department spokesperson said.
Months after Wyoming hosted a grand reopening of the state Capitol building, legislative and executive staffers are still working with folding tables and temporary furniture.
