#66 Calatrava
I've been to Santiago Calatrava's expansion to the Milwaukee Art Museum a number of times but I have never seen the wing-like feature called the Brise Soleil open and close. So today I watched the Brise Soleil open and close. Everyday at noon, weather permitting, the art museum opens and closes the wings. The function of the wings is to act as a sun screen to the glass enclosed reception hall. If you haven't been here to see it I recommend doing so, it is truly one of the more unique architectural buildings we have in this country.

I heard a rumor, perhaps started by one of your workmates that there had been no postings for 3 days. And it turned out not to bee a rumor at all.
