  I chose this building because I thought it looked really interesting and futuristic to have been built in the 60's. I also wanted to know where in the United States it was located in and if it was an actual house or a museum. Also I love where it's located, almost in the middle of no where, and how private it looks. It just seems like a place where I'd like to go and visit and wished I lived in.

7. Why did you pick this building? (write at least a paragraph on this question) 
I chose this building because it was a very interesting looking building seemingly to be made out of rocks. I also wanted to know more of the Spanish buildings and the area they were built in. I was also curious on who built it and if it was still some sort of hotel or condos for the wealthy. It really looked unique and makes you want to go visit it.
