Seems appropriate when London is so full of assholes....I never liked this building. It looks like the last in an ever increasing series of anal stretchers...
:runaway:
Holy shit!
And what's up with the.. um.. 'sticks'?
Prison bars, to make the Scots feel at home....
And I apologize to any tornado victims
lol That must be some sort of pun related to Scottish history..
Unfortunately I don't have enough posts to be able to post links, but, to see the building, just look up images for "The Dorilton", an apartment building located at 171 West 71st Street in Manhattan.
According to Alpern, Andrew. "New York's Fabulous Luxury Apartments With Original Floor Plans from the Dakota, River House, Olympic Tower and Other Great Buildings (New York: Dover Publications, Inc., 1975), p.28:
"When The Dorilton was completed, The Architectural Record, a journal not generally given to strong language, called it "an architectural aberration" and said that "the sight of it makes strong men swear and weak women shrink affrighted".

It isn't necessarily the ugliest, however for a giant "Police Donut" it lacks jam in the middle or at the very least sprinkles.

Esquire magazine once dubbed this "the worst building in the history of mankind" I think it was inspired by the last piece of a Toblerone.
But is it the worst in the history of mankind?
