98 Buildings That Didn't Make The Cut
Burton Barr Library/Phoenix Public Library, Phoenix, AZ
Sandra Day O'Connor United States Court House - Phoenix, AZ
University of Phoenix Stadium (Arizona Cardinals Stadium) - Glendale, AZ
I wonder who nominated the buildings. These do NOT belong on any such list. The Court House in particular is a horrible building. Burton Barr Library is one of my favorite local buildings, but nowhere near the level of any of the libraries on the actual list. And what kind of architect nominates a stadium? Someone over at HOK is high-fiving himself...
