These 8 Pieces Of Architectural Brilliance In Alaska Could WOW Anyone
Architecture, old or new, is art in its boldest terms. A huge skyscraper that looms over bustling streets or a glass-walled living room perched far out over troubled waters each represent the bravery and elegance of architecture.

So please enjoy some of these really amazing works of architecture that are scattered around our equally amazing state.
