Pasadena City Hall

I passed this building on my way home today from the Pro Photo Expo in Pasadena, CA. and was struck by its sheer beauty and had to turn around and take a quick picture.
Pasadena City Hall is one of the finest examples of the California Mediterranean style. It is the dominant building in the Pasadena Civic Center, a complex of government, institutional and cultural buildings that epitomizes the City Beautiful movement. Since its opening on December 27, 1927, 80-year old Pasadena City Hall has remained one of the most distinctive public buildings in the United States and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
