The lobby is open to the public 10am - 5pm Monday - Friday and private tours of the building are available upon request.
The Gold Dome hosts many public events and will reserve the gorgeous lobby, board room or lower level lounge for private parties. The lobby is quite stunning, open to an interior domed ceiling of gold panels. The original terazzo flooring is still beautiful -the lobby makes a great ballroom!
