Where is this?
When was it built?
Who was the architect?
Happy Holidays!

Union Station in DC. In which case it opened in 1908, architect was Daniel Burnham.
Or it could be something completely different. My excuse is jetlag (got back from a week in Cairo on business late yesterday).
I wondered why we hadn't heard from you in a spell -- Cairo, eh?

Hint #1 -- This is also from the USA capital city:

A job well done!

Just look at this beauty, with all of its spires. Where is this building located (city and place), and what is it called?

Is it the Air Force academy Chapel in Colorado springs ?
I believe it represents the figure of jet fighters heading skywards. Although not a fan, it is a wonderful piece of modern architecture
Indeed it is! I find it interesting as it was a true turning point for modern American academic architecture.Quote:
