MIT Stata Center, Boston

The Frank Gehry designed Stata Center on the campus of MIT in Boston. I spent a couple of hours wandering the hallowed MIT campus during my trip to Boston last year and the Stata Center was the highlight of the trip. The architecture was, obviously, the focus but I also loved all the cool toys that were visible through the windows - remote controlled planes and pieces of robotics hinting that a degree in advanced computing from MIT is likely to be a far more fun experience than a similar course of study when I was at university back in the 1980s.

Fantastic work Dave. The HDR brings out the shine in the buildings.
