You’re more than welcome to go steal it, lol. Better pic of the building:

The central large window on the second floor has a massive turntable where they displayed cars.

Danget! I literally guessed everything else. I am soo jealous of that building though. They did a hell of a job on the design.

The platform is, but no more turntable sadly, there’s a conference table instead.
