is this building a joke uglyest building award 1st place winner for being the coldest building ever !!!!
I wish it was a joke. When I first saw its construction from the highway, I thought it was an above grade parking structure alone but it’s not. Is it really that hard to submerge this part of the structure of is it a structural stability issue this close to the river? I didn’t realize the upper floors would look like this but it’s just awful. Who would keep their blinds open with the whole world to see your business’ work? Let’s hope those windows aren’t operable.. Likewise, why are the modern developers so scared to put a profound topper elements on their buildings? It’s a way to conclude the structure, like a period on a sentence – a building needs to be purposeful and apt. They need to figure their designs out because this is embarrassing.
