ANNAPOLIS, Md. - The State House dome, which is getting a new paint job, is a near-sacred place for people who appreciate its historical significance. And because people care so deeply, there is a vigorous debate going on over what color it should be.
One group wants to keep the dome white, as it has been for about the past 180 years; the other thinks the eight-sided structure should be yellow, as it may have been during its first few decades.
To muddy the palette, there are no detailed documents that tell how the dome was originally painted.
Because of its historical significance, the dome and its color must be taken seriously, State Archivist Dr. Edward Papenfuse said.
