Best Answer

The Texas State Capitol is mostly constructed of limestone which was quarried nearby, but that limestone, having a high iron content, tended to discolor; therefore, most of the limestone is hidden. The facings and the dome are made of pink granite, quarried from nearby Marble Falls, Texas.
