Mine—if Northern VA can be considered as part of VA, of course. I really just wanted to see some cigarette headquarters (namely Altria because I'm a strange person), and I was not disappointed. Not only was the building's name a total lie, but it looked completely post-apocalyptic. It was covered in metal panels and everything. It was also kind of like the 1950s in terms of the socioeconomic landscape from what I saw. Nice place, but certainly not booming anymore.
Plexiglass protection in front of fountains for the courtyard between the headquarters and massive parking garage, under massive connecting structure.
I don't imagine it's easy to find a building that symbolizes the power of a corporation through size or architecture like this one. It's just massive.
Sorry for old iPotato quality.
Ironically placed empty pack of Newports. Like, in a meta way bruh.

The end.

Had to look up Altria. Then I saw it was Philip Morris/the brands. That is a company that had(has) some power.

I live in Albany, my state's capital.
It sucks. NYC is better.

Yeah, all of that research at biotech nine! They had a whole wall pop art photos of old celebrities smoking. I didn't really capture the enormity of it all with my pictures, though.

Yeah, the plan for Apple HQ is unreal. But this one is just so sinister in the context of its purpose, and it's called Biotech Nine!

Yeah, and our capitol building is nice and all, but not as imposing as others, since they had to cancel the tower to prevent the whole thing from collapsing.

"Had" is right. They've basically sold off almost all assets of real value due to shareholder pressure and just have the perpetually declining North American cigarette business and a few wineries.

You were probably looking for this. Its about a few miles south of the river on 95.
Sidenote: I have lived in VA for all 24 years of my life and now live in Richmond and have never been to the capital building.
