"Tower of Solar Power"
Happy Flag Day, everyone.
As you can see, this is not a picture of stars and stripes. Despite the fact that I had a dress rehearsal tonight for a concert that consists entirely of patriotic music, I failed to get a photo containing stars and stripes.
This is a photo of Museum Tower taken from inside the Dallas City Performance Hall in the arts district of downtown Dallas. This tower is at the center of a heated (both literally and figuratively) debate between its developers and the adjacent Nasher Sculpture Center. Museum Tower is a forty story mirrored building. It reflects massive amounts of damaging sunlight onto the artwork at the Nasher. This is causing irreparable damage to sculptures both outside and inside the museum. City leaders, representatives of the sculpture center and developers of the tower have been trying to come up with a mutually acceptable solution to this problem. As of yet, they have been unsuccessful with this.
