In its September issue Condé Nast Traveler selected an "Iconic Building" for 12 architects. Included was Santiago Calatrava and of his 35 buildings the magazine selected the Milwaukee Art Museum as his "Iconic Building."

"We mapped out every single public structure built by the 12 architects whose visions have transformed not only whole cities but also where, and why, we travel," the magazine wrote.

Joining the Milwaukee Art Museum in the world's 12 icon buildings in the last two decades are:

  • Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth
  • 30th St. Mary Ave., London
  • Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain
  • Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art, Cincinnati
  • Tate Museum, London
  • Seattle Public Library
  • Denver Art Museum extension
  • Getty Center, Los Angeles
  • Cultural and Congress Center, Lucerne, Switzerland
  • Zentrum Paul Klee, Bern, Switzerland
  • Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Alexandria, Egypt
