In 1998 they removed the nest box for building renovations and replaced it in 2003.  In February 2005 a roof was added to nest box and a camera and monitor installed. I believe they replaced the old nest box in 2009 with the current one. I have been in contact with Joel Jorgensen, the Nongame Bird Program Manager from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission.  He told me there is only one nest box on the State Capitol building.

Here is a photo of the old nest box.

I bet these falcons have a great view from the nest box.  :)
