It is built with modern design and methods, but has beautiful artwork and murals that uplift the spirit of humanity, and give you a faith in government that is sorely lacking in the US. It's like a temple to humanism and good government. I would have liked to see Obama incorporate some elements from that building.
we must have very different tastes because i dont see whats so great about that building. looks more like a county hospital from the outside. im sure the murals are nice but thats really not doing it for me from the outside. this is really your choice for non-oppressive? i mean this is giving me pure 1984 vibes.
