Here's another photo of the quite massive Gaylord.
I'm curious, has anyone here been inside it?
Due to it's bulk I would think it would have to have an atrium for light & ventilation.
I just answered my own question..... in the aerial photograph gsjansen posted earlier.
I was under the impression the Gaylord was a cube, but the building is L-shaped.
Hence no need for an atrium/skylight.
