travel south pacific new zealand auckland the cloud
ARCHITECT: JASMAX (2011)

The Cloud is a multi-purpose event venue located on Queen's Wharf on the Auckland waterfront next to the cruise ship dock.
This $7.9 million structure was built as the centerpiece of the hospitality and "pary zone" facilities for the Rugby World Cup 2011.
It can accommodate up to 6,000 people.

I found the structure somewhat unique and interesting, but when I visited, it was virtually empty.
