Our mission is to revitalize Virginia’s 216 year-old Capitol to ensure it provides an efficient, modern working environment, while maintaining its historical significance.
In the process of extending the life of this historic building, we will be continuing Thomas Jefferson’s vision of public integrity and dignity by providing accessibility to governance, guaranteeing its significance for future generations, and building on Virginia’s tradition of excellence.
Through partnerships with the citizens of the Commonwealth and private enterprise, it will remain a working capitol. Beginning in May of 2007, the completed restoration of the Capitol was unveiled as a continuing symbol of democracy and a distinctive component of Virginia’s efforts to preserve the Commonwealth’s heritage.
In achieving our mission, resources were sought and used in an affordable, fair, and consistent manner for the benefit of all Virginians. Our stewardship will foster a collaborative relationship with the public and ensure a safe working environment.
