Theme Building at Los Angeles International Airport

The Theme Building is a structure at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), considered an architectural example of the Space Age design style. Influenced by "Populuxe" architecture, it is an example of the Mid-century modern design movement, later to become known as "Googie". In 1993, the city designated the exterior and interior of the Theme Building as a historic-cultural monument.

Honestly didn't know it closed until I just followed the Wikipedia link. Kinda neat place, ate there once when taking a flight. Kinda neat view with the whole revolving floor, food was meh though.

So frustrating that "destinations" like this often have "meh" dining experience.

Looks right out of Logan's Run (I don't remember if they used a model of it in the opening scenes).
