This unique structure is currently the "Alexander Film Services" studio and video lab. It is suprising just how much space is hidden within the walls (wall)(roof).

Does a round building have walls as in a square building. Does it have a roof when the roof is part of the wall(s). OK mayby this building has a top half and bottom half. I guess that sounds like a good description.


Lets start over.........Its amazing just how much space is hidden under the top half of this building. The shop owner was kind enough to let me take a quick tour. Low ceiling at the edges but quite high towards the center. no corners to sit in though.

The hours of operation for this building are:

Mon - Fri 8:30 to 5:30
Sat 10:00 to 3:00

Phone: 719-531-6311

The current owners don't know how old it is or why it is shaped like a saucer....they say they just like the feel of the building and so do their regular customers.
