In reference to the unused design, if you scroll down to the third and forth pictures, the model of the golden shell, these are the pictures that I like so much (quite different in their suggestion of a final result than some of the others), but again, they are only pictures.

(I would add once again, that standing in front of the old theatre, I don't believe that this building in back would have looked nearly as big as the first of these two pictures would make it appear, because of the slightly elevated view.)
