Visit msnbc.com for Breaking News, World News, and News about the Economy

Here's the final quiz in the Today Show's runup to the release of Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol." If you don't get it from the photo -- and you've probably noticed the building while stuck a Washington-area traffic jam -- here are some more clues: 1. You can follow these directions to the location: 40.750305, -74.993156, 89 Palmetto, and Count the Hills of Rome 2. A replica of a famous artifact sits behind a curtain inside, and its name is an anagram for contact for heaven. We'll provide the answer here later today.
