Every time I have the opportunity to, I take pictures of this landmark, which I referred to as "The Blue Dome" when I was a child. These pictures were taken yesterday through the window of a moving vehicle on I91, first going Northbound, then later in the day going Southbound.

"Samuel Colt bought property in Hartford's South Meadows where he built the Colt's Armory that was completed in August of 1855. The Armory was topped with an onion-shaped blue dome on which stood a rampant colt cast from bronze." source
