MYSTERY PHOTO: Sphere on a pedestal is what you are searching for

For today’s mystery, we’ll supply you with one clue; it is located, you might say, in the middle of nowhere.  See if you can find out where this sphere is balanced on this  pedestal. You might be surprised to find this answer. 

The previous mystery was difficult, and was recognized by three readers. The photograph came from Rob Ponder of Duluth.

Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. wrote: “Today’s mystery photo is of the Riverfront Station, a commuter rail station, located on the west bank of the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville, Tenn. It is near the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge and across the river and within walking distance from Nissan Stadium, the home field of the NFL Tennessee Titans and the Tennessee State University Tigers.

“The current station’s ‘post-and-beam’ architectural design is a throwback to the looks of the ‘Old World’ train stations of the early 20th century. It was built on the site of a circa-1902 Tennessee Central Railway Passenger Station that was in use until 1955, after which it became a freight storage site. Work on the new Riverfront Station started in 2004 and was first opened to the public in September 2006.”

Also recognizing it were George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; and Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.
