this might be the answer: In addition to using native materials, Arizona's Capitol design fit the needs of the territory with many built-in, warm-weather features. In the days before air conditioning, thick walls were used to insulate a building and keep the heat out. Additionally, skylights and round 'bullseye' windows, both of which opened, allowed heat (which rises) to escape the legislative chambers. http://azcapitol.lib.az.us/capitol_creation.htm Feb 20 02, 6:34 PM
