From the looks of this skyline many major cities own the Middle East are competing with one and other to see who has the most eye catching waterfront. Dubai, Baku and Doha are all locations I have visited and they have all plowed huge fortunes of oil money into such buildings.

"Im Bücher-Palast" - eine Hommage an das Wort, sei es das geschriebene, gedruckte oder das digitale.
Wer den schmalen Eingang unter dem weit auskragenden Dreieck des schwebenden Dachs passiert, dem verschlägt es den Atem. Der Besucher betritt einen lichten, hellen Palast für Bücher, getragen von Glaswänden und wenigen schlanken, hohen Säulen. Die Regale gruppieren sich auf ansteigenden Rängen, wie Zuschauer in einem römischen Theater.

"In the Palace of Books" - a tribute to the word, be it written, printed or digital.
Anyone who passes the narrow entrance under the wide cantilevered triangle of the floating roof is left breathless. The visitor enters a light, bright palace for books, supported by glass walls and a few slender, tall columns. The shelves are grouped on rising tiers, like spectators in a Roman theater.

Smack dab in the middle of the grand foyer of Doha's Hamad International Airport is this huge sculpture, "Untitled (Lamp/Bear)," by Swiss artist Urs Fischer. It stands 23 feet tall and is made of cast bronze, weighing about 20 tons. The piece previously resided in front of the Seagram Building on New York's Park Avenue until some rich oil sheikh decided it would look better in Qatar and paid $6.8 million for it in 2013. In all honesty, I think it's silly. ©2022 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
