A Lego model of the Minnesota State Capitol is once again on public display.
Lego Ambassador Roy Cook, a University of Minnesota professor, built the six-foot long model using moe than 75,000 plastic bricks. The two small Lego figures on the Capitol steps represent architect Cass Gilbert and Gov. John Johnson (1905-1909).
The Minnesota Historical Society says the model will remain on display inside the Capitol through Jan. 4.
