The Polk County Science building

.






The largest Frank Lloyd Wright building at Florida Southern College, the Polk County Science building was constructed between 1953 and 1958 at a cost of $1,000,000. Known locally as "Polk Science", the building features the only built Wright-designed planetarium. It was also one of the first buildings to use aluminum as a structural element.
