MYSTERY: Modernistic building design seen in many buildings

Today’s Mystery Photo looks to be a smaller version of the design of buildings from not too many years ago. Somehow, it reminds us of a onetime look of the Norcross Post Office, before it was re-vamped to the present Norcross City Hall. Send in your guess as to where this is to elliott@brack.net and be sure to include your hometown.
