The main library in Cerritos is an amazing building. The exterior is very modern and much of it is clad in titanium tiles. You can see the sign for the library through the hole of the sculpture, which is called Tsunami by artist Mark Leichliter.
To really appreciate the detail in the 3-D image, view both pictures above in the original size so that they fill the screen. Don't sit too far from the screen, cross your eyes until you see three images. You might have to adjust your focus back and forth a bit but the middle image should eventually pop into view as 3D.

TITLE: A NEW VISION FOR LIBRARY ARCHITECTURE
DATE:1927
NOTES: Myron Hunt’s design—an imaginative combination of formal Italian style and Spanish architecture–was selected for the Central Library.
Its unique approach eliminated some aspects of more traditional library designs. He located all public services on one floor with connections to staff areas.
