South Dakota Governor's Residence

South Dakota Governor's Residence

The South Dakota Governor's Residence is the official residence of the Governor of South Dakota. The first and current resident, Mike Rounds, has lived in the house since its dedication on August 3 2005.

Construction began in the Spring of 2004. Private and business donations funded the new mansion. The total cost of the project was $2.87 million. The 14,000 square foot residence sits on the east shore of Capitol Lake, at 119 North Washington Avenue, in Pierre, South Dakota.

The former South Dakota governor's mansion, built on the same spot by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, has been moved to a new location near Rapid City, South Dakota.
