The Millennium Building

Still on my journey to nowhere yesterday, I finally stopped and shot this glass and granite monster located in Addison, TX.  I have always loved the architectural angle where if you look at it straight on, you really can't tell that the circle on the top doesn't go all the way around.  Whizzing by on the tollway, it demands your attention - or from most any block within 20 you can see the top.  I've seen this building in all kinds of weather and it's always beautiful.





DALLAS, Oct. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- At ceremonies today, Clyde C. Jackson, Jr., president of Dallas-based Wynne/Jackson, Inc., and Jim Lozier, president of Archon Group, L.P., broke ground on MILLENNIUM, a one million-square-foot, master-planned office and hotel development located on an eight-acre site at the northwest corner of Dallas Parkway and Arapaho Road. Phase I of the project includes a 14-story, 375,000-square-foot granite and glass, Class A+ office tower with a seven-level, 1,350-space, adjoining parking garage. Completion for Phase I is scheduled for November 1999.

Impressive! We have a couple of buildings that have this reflective look, only different colors and smaller. I always wonder how they keep the surface so clean. I never see anyone cleaning them. I also was wondering if it's actually glass or something like plexiglass. I just recently took pictures of the the ones here.

That's some building, to catch people's attention! I love reflections and I can only imagine what that might look like in sunrise or sunset.
