The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus -- Question

We saw Gilliam's The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus today. It was weird & wonderful.

Can anyone who's seen it identify the building where the final scene takes place? It's the scene (being careful not to spoil anything) where a reunion of sorts takes place. The building is a multistory curving wall, and kinds looks like this:
Library

It looks amazingly like the Salt Lake City Library, but isn't. I'm kind of disappointed to learn one of the premiere architectural expressions of Salt Lake is just a cheap knock-off of another building (in either London or Vancouver, judging by the movie's credits.)

Vancouver Public Library

I thought we had something unique. Alas...

I think I've seen it in Galactica too.
