Glass and Steel

More shots from the National Library construction site. The old brick-and-mortar library building isn't being preserved, maybe because it doesn't have that 'quaint' look. Years on, will this 'modern' building be replaced by another sign-of-the-times architectural structure? How long before even glass and steel become 'outmoded' building materials?

part of the new NLB building looks complete, while the adjacent facade is crisscrossed with latticework scaffolding.
Half a face

I think I underexposed this next shot - the white gateway looks gray. :(
