7 blocks from mi casa. I am not kidding when I say tearing this down was on the table for a spell. Thanks goodness it was spared.

And yes,its Golden Kitsch-o liciousness.

    I love Bucky’s domes. He was SO ahead of his time and what he created was so timeless.

    As it’s so close to su casa can you shoot a few more detail shots of it?

    I had no idea these came in gold.

    There was one here in Baton Rouge just like it tho not painted gold. And yes, they did tear that one down a few years ago even though it’s significance was well known, ah progress. As i recall, the one here in BR was one of very few Bucky domes left, so consider yourself fortunate that the one in your area hasn’t been torn down yet.
