oohh how exciting *claps*:

for walking pens and Aussie oath,
immortilised in glass and frame,
forever within Australia's version of France's fame.

Arts Center, Melbourne, Australia.

When giving geographic cues,
Be careful how you word the clues,
For a simple Google search did show,
The tower of Art, at very first go.

Definitely a good puzzle. Would have been alot more difficult to find if it weren't for the poem, that's all. I hope you stick around and keep playing. More fun with more people choosing places.

Damn, I just realized that the Golden, Colorado thing that I posted was already done before.

That'll learn me to skip pages when I've been away for a while.

Indeed, it is.

The clue should help when coupled with that information, I would think.

Correct. The Helsinki Olympic stadium was actually built for the 1940 Olympics, which were canceled because of WWII.
