Viewing the dome from its interior looks like a single structure until you look at the wooden models that it is 3 separate structures. The dome is 307.5 feet high; 19 feet taller than the Capitol dome in Washington, D.C.

Interesting cross sections.

How cool is that! I'd love to see it up close, as a designer/builder architectural construction fascinates me.

Fascinating to see how the interior of the dome is actually constructed and pieced together!

The SF city hall dome is quite impressive. I can see it from the roof of my building. It does look like it should be a national capital.

I really adore architectural models - I think I like them better than the real buildings! :)

I have always found domes fascinating. I have been up in the one in the CA state capital, and it is constructed the very same way. - Great shots of the model - and a gorgeous model to boot.

Is that a cutaway dome that we're seeing? How interesting!!

It is always fascinating to look at domes. This one is beautiful too and interesting to view those cross sections. Have a Nice day :)

desimonephotography.com Wedding photography

has come a long way from it’s early roots. If you’re dreading the time and trouble that

those obligatory portraits take to set up and shoot, it might help to know that you’ve got

it pretty easy compared to couples in the early days of wedding photography. So, humor the

parents and grandparents who want a traditional portrait or two. These days it only takes a

few minutes to give them that cherished memory.
