This is awesome!
What are those things all around the building? Are they suppose to represent automobiles?

Cheers.

  Hey Mr. Ray,
  
  I think they are supposed to be cars. It’s pretty cool. I love the arched supports under the model; it totally gives it that 1960’s feeling.

Love it! Reminds me a bit of some Carlos Diniz architectural renderings I saw earlier this year. I’m gonna twitter this out!
