Another one of my least favorite buildings is the Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Much like the Physical Sciences Center at OU, this building has the appearance of a military fortress. To me, there is nothing special about the look of this structure, with the metal siding extending all the way around the circumference creating a very dark, almost arguably depressing look. This structure is used for sports events, but has also been known to house people who are stranded in New Orleans during a hurricane or other natural disaster with nowhere else safe to go. Although this building is not visually pleasing, its use in the city of New Orleans is without a doubt a positive. When I first saw this building, I could not believe how large it was. It covered a massive area, and makes it even more disappointing to me that the designers of the stadium could not have chosen a more aesthetically pleasing look, though I’m sure money had something to do with that.
