A developer cutting corners? Say it ain’t so!
Didn't they watch Towering Inferno?
At least they aren’t blaming the architect this time.

This sounds very justified, but I won’t work on condo projects. Lawsuits are way too common with them.

Those super-tall slender towers freak me out anyway.
I know the math says that they won’t tip over, but

"The Embrace," a bronze sculpture by Mark Willis Thomas, was installed in December 2022 in Boston Common. It represents the arms of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King in an embrace – but when viewed from another angle it looks like two hands embracing a giant penis!

That‘s fantastic!

Conan is awesome and it is kinda phallic but there are so many better examples of stuff resembling dicks I doubt this is the best example even in Boston alone.
There sure are! Architecture is full of schlongs.

And there you have it!

I saw that when it was under construction. I only wish that I’d seen it from that side.

We were in Boston Common shortly after it was unveiled, and from most angles, it's impressive. I guess that's how it goes with art.

The 13-story Capitol Records Building on Vine Street in Hollywood resembles a stack of records. I will pause in case anyone wants to ask, "What are 'records'?" The world's first circular office building opened in April 1956 and in September 2024 was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
