MYSTERY PHOTO: Aged structure awaits your prognostication

Today’s Mystery Photo wasn’t built yesterday. It apparently is still doing what it was made for. All you have to do is figure out where this photograph was made. Send your answers to elliott@brack.net, and be sure to include your  hometown. 

The last Mystery Photo didn’t fool some people.  No leaves were not blown in. Sara Rawlins, Lawrenceville, responded first:  “I believe that picture is of the carpet at the Gwinnett Gas South Convention Center, taken from the second floor. I was there this past spring for the Quilt and Sewing Expo. The interior of the Convention Hall itself is top notch and I’m glad they moved the concession stand outside the Dealer’s Room to a space that can accommodate more tables and benches for folks to sit, eat and relax, away from the main walking areas.” The photo came from the Gas South District website. 

And Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. chipped in with this: “Today’s mystery photo shows the upper and lower levels of the Gas South District Convention Center  at 6400 Sugarloaf Parkway  in Duluth. The photo was taken from the upper level, facing southeast out toward the main entrance of the convention center.  And no, the door was not inadvertently left open on a windy, fall day. Instead, as part of the recent renovations made to the convention center, it was decided to create a peaceful and relaxing fall-themed environment by decorating the convention center with ‘fallen leaves’ and featuring leaves from trees that populate the southern states. The names of some exhibit halls are after these trees, including the Maple, Cypress, Oak, and Hickory Halls.”

Also recognizing the photo were Barbara Myers of Big Canoe and George Graf of Palmyra, Va.
