Is this the building that was built to deliberately look like the tower of Babel? What drawings exist of the tower of Babel? How would we know what it looked like?

Hmmm... It looks like noone was in there at the time!!
I was in the Hartford Civic Center hours before the roof fell!
I was watching a Uconn-UMass basketball game.

None from the time, but there are paintings of artist conceptions which is what they based the architecture on.
