    Is this a beautiful building or what??

    Smithsonian Institution National Museum of the American Indian;



    It's on 4 acres adjacent to the National Air and Space Museum & opens next week. It's directed, curated and staffed largely by Native Americans and was conceived after consultation with tribal groups all over the Americas.

    Reminds me of some of the sandstone mesas you see out west.

    Cool....

    Makes me think of Willey E. Coyote and all those cliffs he usually gets hammered by

          Looks like your opinion of that building isn't shared by many. I'm not a very big fan of it's design, personally.

              LOL, yeah that's it. Although I do think it looks cool, except some of those windows will rarely get sunlight.

                  It just screams "I am a Conference Hall" or "I am a Modern Artsy Museum"

                    This design is not really my taste, I'm afraid...

                        looks like an upside-down sandal. (worn with socks of course ).

                        I'm sure the picture doesn't do it justice.
