Las Vegas – Brain Health Twisted Building

I took the above photos in 2015 and I think I have some more recent ones which are of a better quality, but since this isn’t a photo competition these can do. The building, located at 888 W. Bonneville Avenue, is officially named the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health and it opened in May 2010. The $70 million building certainly makes a design statement and was designed by Frank Gehry, noted for his work on the Guggenheim Museum.

The building behind the intriguing frontage is a fully functional health building that investigates brain illnesses, particularly in relation to Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntingtons and Multiple Sclerosis. As a work of art though, I think it’s a quite magnificent building.
