Im pretty sure the construction crew thought the architect was o crack when the building was designed...hahahaha.
The Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health officially the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health, opened on July 13, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada that is operated by the Cleveland Clinic and was designed by world-renowned architect, Frank Gehry of Gehry Partners in Santa Monica, California. He also designed the Disney Concert Hall in LA. #8470085

Awesome capture. I would have thought it wasn't real either. #8470115

This is terrific capture, Songbird! I knew it was a Frank Gehry even before I knew what the building was! He also designed an art museum in Minneapolis and of course the Balboa Museum in Spain, among others. You've really done a nice job with this! #8470116
