The Jones Dome in downtown st. louis used to be the TWA dome. As the TWA dome, it also had big bold letters on it (TWA), but i don't think it was done to be seen from space.

the dome is easily visible when planes come to land at Lambert St. Louis airport. the approach path takes the planes right over downtown, and past the dome (when the planes are travelling west to land).
