@EmilieT 

Glad you like the theme.

As @Cleoriff  has posted additional info, you can give your second answer; and, to gain credit, give any additional info on either of your answers. You have until 12 noon tomorrow to post.

Centre Georges Pompidou.
There is a public library and Europe's largest museum for modern art along with IRCAM (Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Music), a centre for music and acoustic research.
It is named after Georges Pompidou, the President of France in the early 1970's, who commissioned the building.

@Cleoriff  Oops Fear

 

Not to make excuses, but I am yet to have a snack and a coffee so I must have forgotten about this part of the rules ...

I shall accept the consequences of my overenthusiasm  zipper_mouth

As @EmilieT and @MI5 both gave three answers, then the only fair way to deal with this [apart from sending them to the Naughty Step Happy Dance] is to allow the other players - @Cleoriff ; @TallTrees ; @JAZZ-trad - to give a third answer.

 

Please note: the Thursday Quiz closes at 12 noon today, so you don`t have long to give a third answer.
