The Saddledome has a hyperboloid roof structure. Not all the buildings on that list look like the dome, but it was the first list I could find that had multiple buildings like it. you have to scan through to see the ones like the dome.
1952
1954
1962
1971
1983(Saddledome)
2011

there might be others on the list that was just a quick scan, there is for sure other buildings in the world like it. I believe at one time I heard around 20. SOme others have already been listed.
