There’s a great 99% Invisible podcast episode called “Derelict Dome” that tells the story of a geodesic dome restaurant built in the 1950s.

“The glass windows heated the restaurant up like a greenhouse, so the owner installed fiberglass over most of the dome, blocking the ocean views. It leaked constantly, and was difficult to maintain.”
