21st Century Neohistorist Architecture of all kinds

I'm gonna post this here too since it applies...

Do you know of any buildings built in neoclassical architecture or inspired by it that was completed in this century? This was the only one I could find in google, anything else?

Schermerhorn Symphony Center:

very nice architecture. However, I like new form interpretations and not copies of historic buildings.

I like them both. Although I agree new interpretations are preferable because they represent the evolution of the traditional architecture in question. Also, what is very important is the environment in which the new building(in old style) is being built. I find it quite inappropriate to build them in some new parts of the city. These kind of buildings are just for historic centers if you ask me.

I dont think so..
this building does not show the time. that is ,evolution。it is a just fake of at that time

A style of building also changes with the passage of time.

I thought it was nice.
As far as public spaces projects go, this is one of the better.

My only real issue is the lack of greenery.

It isn’t about being the most unique freaky thing on the block.
This sort of architecture is in something much deeper, it is based in centuries of European architectural tradition and heritage, it is important to Europeans (well... not all Europeans) and a great deal of the world population.

Inventive is dull, because when everyone is trying to be inventive, no one is. Classical architecture is relaxed; its ability to elegantly go with the flow with a few of its own marks here and there makes it timeless and beautiful, soothing to the soul.
