Where in the World is TravelGumbo (#128)

WITW #128

 Gumbo's had a great travel year so far and still is wandering the globe. He leaves behind the beautiful gold mosaics of the Monreal Cathedral in Sicily and heads here.

 

As usual, we ask that you not jump too quickly if you're sure you have the answer; give others time to chime in and see if you can all find your way to the end. More clues and photos of the building will follow in the coming days.

  1. Share your suggestions, hints, observations and discussions with others by posting them here as comments...
  2. If you absolutely know what and where it is....please give others some time to work on it  before you pounce.  Email us your answer to suggestions@travelgumbo.com.  We acknowledge everyone who correctly answers the puzzle when the "reveal" is posted and in the order these answers are received.

There are some subtle clues above in the original photo, if you look close. I'll add a photo tomorrow. I can tell you this building looks very different, depending on where you are standing, and that's true for both the inside and outside of it. There's a lot of glass, metal, stone and wood that were used in the construction.

If you want a thing done, ask a busy man.

Had no idea who John Portman was and now discover that I stayed in his first atrium hotel, the Atlanta Hyatt Regency, within a year of it's opening '67 or '68.  Then at the one at Chicago O'Hare, which I assume was his too, in 1971.  I sat in front of a window in our room in one of the silos, which looked out over the runways, amusing myself counting the planes back to infinity as they lined up to land, while I cared for my infant son.  Thanks for the memories, John.
