For a similar-ish look in a free (as in freedom) font you might try:

Juntion http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/1-junction

Capralba (Modern)
http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/3-flaminia-type-system

Tiresias
http://www.tiresias.org/fonts/index.htm

Another one you might like that's free (but not in freedom
unfortunately) is Delicious:
http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/delicious.html

It's free for personal and commercial use but it's not re-distributable.
