I had to look this up in Wikipedia; what a monumental design!  "A sphere 500
feet high..." I wonder if that's even larger (in diameter) than the dome of St.
Peter's Basilica in Rome? It appears to be.

It seems to bear striking similarities to Albert Speer's later designs for
Adolphe Hitler--basic shapes and forms on a grand scale.

Nice modeling work!
