The music hall was built as a part of the last will and testament of Edward L. and Mary Seaton Kleinhans, owners of the Kleinhans men's clothing store. The couple left close to 1 million dollars for the music hall's construction. The building was designed by Eliel Saarinen with his son, Eero Saarinen and "was recognized as one of the greatest concert halls ever built in the United States". It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1989.

=============
I targeted the music hall because it was a National Historic Landmark which I chase. I remember having to circle around the location a couple of times because I did not have it marked in the GPS correctly. I did go inside, however it looked like they were preparing for a concert or an event. It was too dark for hand holding the camera to take any pictures with success.
