The Norfolk Scope (1968-71, Pier Luigi Nervi with Williams and Tazewell) is a multipurpose arena at 201 E. Brambleton Avenue, in Norfolk, Virginia. It's located on a superblock that was cleared during the postwar urban renewal period, in a vast plaza devoid of anything of interest except for oversized concrete streetlamps. Underneath is a 600+ car parking garage. It basically resembles a spaceship marooned in L'Enfant Plaza in Washington, DC. James Howard Kunstler, author of The Geography of Nowhere, described it as a vision of "yesterday's tomorrow."

Had to take an impromptu trip to Moline on Saturday to pick up some architectural plans and did some back-to-school shopping. My 10-year old and I ended up at this mall that seemed to be on life-support, but it did have some interesting Mid-century Modern details.
South Park Mall opened in 1974 and was developed by General Growth Properties. The original mall was a modified T-shape with Montgomery Ward's, Younker's, and Von Maur as anchors. Penney's was quickly added in 1978 and finally Sears in 1990. The mall is now owned by Simon Properties.
This place was wonderful - great food and a kitschy atmosphere. If all of you in the Northeast are wondering why you can't find 1950s chome tables and Mid-century advertising that's because it's all here at the Friendly Toast.

Got this email from a flickr friend (who gave me permission to post) - I've never met this man but we have spoken on the phone.

This morning, just before I woke up, I had a crazy dream.
You and I were driving somewhere in a black BMW type car. We were in Oklahoma City near my old neighborhood. There was a lot of construction. We were just driving along, and I turned around and looked up and realized there were three small funnel clouds moving through. I screamed, and had you pull into a construction zone to park. We took our iPods, and a bag from the trunk, and ran into some building. You kept saying "You're so beautiful", because I warned you about the tornadoes. Everyone was lined up on the street to watch the pending disaster, but it never really happened. Somehow, I lost track of you, and ended up being married to the first gay president. I was the First Gentlemen. haha
Then I woke up and thought "WTF?!"

This is a GIGANTIC, ridiculously huge Chihuly in the lobby of my friend's apartment building in the Columbus Circle / Lincoln Center area.
The New York Public Library (Stephen A. Schwarzman Building) was designed by Carrère and Hastings and opened to the public in 1911. It is on the National Register #66000546, and is also a National Historic Landmark.
Lighting in the lobby of a nearby luxury apartment house. I'm guessing the diameter overall (to parts unseen in this crop) is 8'-0"? HUGE
if the string attached to the light in your bathroom is too short you can lengthen the string and throw a gun on the end
One of the many crystalline light fixtures throughout the Community Center.

This light fixture is in the cover over the gas pump area at a 7-11. That really looks to me like LED lighting. Kudos again to 7-11 for leading the way on rational, efficient outdoor lighting. It takes an impressive amount of bright LEDs to light up a large outdoor area. That couldn't have been cheap, but I expect they are saving on electricity. They loose points for having them on in the daytime, though. At first, I thought some of the LEDs were burned out, but now it looks like such a symmetrical pattern here, and in another photo of a similar fixture, that I think it's just the way the fixture is made.

The first Statler Hotel had 300 rooms and bathrooms and was constructed in 1908; it was located on the corner of Washington and Swan in downtown Buffalo. With Ellsworth Statler's original Statler Hotel, he created the Statler Plumbing Shaft wherein bathrooms backed up to a service shaft that contained the plumbing stack. Statler was the first major hotel chain to have a bathroom in every room.
This is Statler's second hotel in Buffalo. It was completed in 1923 and was designed by George B. Post. It had 1,100 rooms (more than all of the other hotels in Buffalo combined). Part of it was converted to offices in 1948 and it formally closed as a hotel in 1982. It is still not open as a hotel, but the ballrooms and lobby are undergoing renovation for rental.
Light Fixture in the theater area of the State Theater
STATE THEATRE - PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
The State Theatre was hailed as "the largest, finest and most beautiful playhouse in Western Pennsylvania," upon its opening in the fall of 1922. With many accolades it became a "picture place," showing silent movies and presenting vaudeville's finest acts from the B.F. Keith Circuit.
Thomas Lamb, a nationally known theater architect, designed the State. He is best known for his work in the 18th century Robert Adam's style of architecture and for his fine acoustical planning. The Ingstrip-Burke Company of Chicago, Art Designers, decorated the interior of the Moderne structure in the Adam's style. The theme was that of "refinement of line and chasteness of ornamentation." The artist in charge, Michael Tomlin, educated at the School of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Russia, pronounced himself well-satisfied: "It is better than I hoped, it is what I dreamed."
The State Symphony Orchestra held forth in the pit with a $40,000.00 Pleubet Master Organ at the left front of the main floor - accompanying the silent films to fit the mood. As the Big Band sound emerged, the State hosted some of the country's greatest musical attractions including Paul Whitman, Glen Gray and the Dorsey Brothers.
The popularity of "talkies" signaled the end for in-house musicians and the end of vaudeville. Although the greatest names in Hollywood flickered across the screen and epics such as Gone With the Wind drew packed audiences, the State's days as a movie palace were numbered. Television took away a sizable audience and the movie theatre trend turned to multiple screens and smaller auditoriums: The State Theatre closed in June 1973.
After a number of years the theatre reopened as The State Music Hall, featuring county and western music legends like Johnny Cash, Slim Whitman, Waylon Jennings and The Statler Brothers. Though popular for a time, the State Music Hall concept did not work out and the theatre closed again.
In 1988, The Greater Uniontown Heritage Consortium purchased the theatre, restored its old name and began presenting aseries of professional programs ranging from Broadway musicals to big bands, symphonies to country music superstars. The State Theatre offers a children's series of shows and provides educational programming for school groups. A multi-million dollar restoration project is currently underway to restore the "Grand Old Lady of Main Street" to her original splendor.
