New York State Education Department Building

The New York State Education Department Building (commonly known as the State Education Building) is a state office building in Albany, New York. It houses offices of the New York State Education Department (NYSED) and was formerly home to the New York State Museum and New York State Library. Designed by Henry Hornbostel and opened in 1912, the building is known for its expansive colonnade.
==History==
The State Education Building was designed by Henry Hornbostel and built between 1908 and 1911.〔 It was the "first major building constructed in the United States solely as a headquarters for the administration of education."〔
Dr. Andrew Sloan Draper was the first Commissioner of Education of the State of New York and wanted a separate Education Building to provide more space for the growing agency. In 1906, after two years of negotiations with the New York Legislature, Draper secured a site near the New York State Capitol building. However, William Croswell Doane, the first Episcopal Bishop in Albany, was building the Cathedral of All Saints on South Swan Street, on the very block that Commissioner Draper viewed as his.
When Doane was out of Albany, Draper used his political influence to snatch up surrounding property and forever obscured the view of Doane’s new building from Washington Avenue and from the skyline as seen from the Hudson River. The Education Building cost approximately $4 million. It was finished on January 1, 1911 but was not dedicated until November 1912 with the state museum and library moving into fireproof wings in the building. In March 1911 a fire in the Capitol destroyed some of the state library collection before it was moved, over 450,000 books and 270,000 manuscripts and journals were lost in this disaster.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://bcsd.k12.ny.us/middle/michalek/frontpage%20albany%202002a/State%20Ed/edbuilding.htm )
In 1959, work was finished on a nine story addition to the northeastern side of the building along Hawk and Elk streets. The addition is called the New York State Department of Education Building Annex.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=229437 )
The building was designed in the Beaux-Arts style.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://archrecord.construction.com/projects/bts/archives/renovations/stateed/overview.asp )〕 It was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1971.〔
The building housed the New York State Museum from 1912 until as late as 1976, when the museum was relocated to the Cultural Education Center (part of the Empire State Plaza). The New York State Library, also housed in the Education Building, was moved to the Cultural Education Center as well.
