This public library in Kansas City, Missouri, has one seriously cool façade! From Deputy Dog:
Local residents were asked to nominate influential books that represent kansas city, humungous versions of the winning nominations were then used as the exterior of the library car-park.

Curious as to how LOTR represents Kansas City - maybe some of the gloomier parts of the book.

The books don't necessarily represent Kansas City - some books are examples of books that Kansas Citians enjoyed reading.
I have a few more views of this parking garage on my flickr account:

Cool, books make minds work.

Interesting... some of those have been banned. Does Kansas City like to be rebellious?

This is actually the parking garage for the library. The building itself is a much more traditional old stone pile. The story about the community bookshelf is totally accurate. great library.
