Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Quadracci Pavilion, designed by Santiago Calatrava

"The structure contains a movable, wing-like brise soleil which opens up for a wingspan of 217 feet during the day, folding over the tall, arched structure at night or during inclement weather. The brise soleil has since become a symbol for the city of Milwaukee.
