What is the building in the middle of LAX Airport that shows up in so many set-up shots on bad TV shows? It’s white with 2 arches over the top, and looks like it might have been a leftover set from the Jetsons live-action movie before they gave up and made it a cartoon.
Speaking of which, since a whole lot of much-crappier old shows have been made into similarly-crappy movies lately, why not give the Jetsons a shot?
It’s the contrl tower, I believe.
It’s a restaurant.
It’s a building that contains a restaurant. It used to be called The Theme Building.
I believe it has a slightly different name now.
I doublechecked and it’s still called The Theme Building. The restaurant inside it is called “Encounter”.
The control tower is relatively new and does have a curved top to it. The old one was flat on top.
There is also a set of sculptures that have a series of different colored lights illuminating them. It is not extremely popular with art critics or airport users who faces a lot of construction delays while these things were being put up.
It’s a restaurant now, but when it was built (early 60s I think) it was quite innovative.
I’ve eaten their once, I believe, in the late sixties.
One point that has not been mentioned is that it rotates inside, so you get a view of the whole airport while you eat.
Huh. Learn something new every day.
