Gumbo has waved a sentimental farewell to Alsace and gone off in another direction (or perhaps misdirection?) This week he’s visiting a place whose identify offers so many diverse clues that finding him may not be easy—but close attention to the clues will yield useful information.
This week’s location is the world’s first of its kind, and others have imitated it. Its creators were famed in their field, and their work can be found in many places, but most of the clues show the work of others.
Confused? The Puzzler hopes not, and believes that when you’ve figured out two or three of the clues the answer will come quickly. But which two or three will work for you?

So, where is Gumbo visiting this week? This time, the answer is not a town or building, but is within a well-known city.
Saturday’s clues…getting closer and more revealing!
The building has a special distinction: there are more than a dozen copies of it scattered across the U.S. and seven other countries!
And the final pair. If you haven’t caught on already, these should help. One is a cropped image of one of the location’s most-famous buildings.
Here are the first two added clues for this week. You’ll need to put a bunch of seemingly disparate clues together to see the whole jigsaw!
Friday clues…a handsome building typical of its type, and an unusual set of crosses that mark a Baptist church…
Apologies for late posting of these Thursday clues!
A pleasantly-styled building and a very pleasant park…
