Mid-Century Modern Building Trivia

Mid-Century Modern DomeStephen Clowney will know this — we've had a meal in this building.  But I'm guessing most other faculty lounge readers will say, "what the heck is this?"  Where is it?  What is it?

    Ken,

    It does look very much like the Mississippi State gold dome, but this is a different one (and smaller).

    The Gold Dome in Oklahoma City?

    That's right, Bill. Quite a building, isn't it?

    My parents banked there (back when it was a bank). I went there often with my mom when I was growing up.

    That was my bank, too, when I lived in Oklahoma City. A few years back the bank closed its branch there and it was a restaurant. I think it was empty when I was back in Oklahoma City in March. It's pretty impressive inside.

    There is a near-identical building, still I think a bank, in Nashville.

    I miss that restaurant, Al. According to the internets, The Gold Dome was recently purchased by an environmental engineering firm who plan to move their professional staff into the building. http://theteemco.com/golddome/
