Harpa concert hall

I'm very fond of this concert hall. I've been staring at it all day because the Dax is moored right next to it. It is surrounded by great big holes in the ground - it was intended to be part of a great big complex including a luxury hotel, a conference centre and a bank headquarters, but all the rest of that fell through when the Icelandic economy went into convulsions. But the concert hall eventually got completed. It's very beautiful, not only that but a bunch of kids ride skateboards for hours outside the front door and noone asks them to leave.
