Speaking Of Ugly Buildings....

it seems a glass addition to the Royal Ontario Museum is #8 on the Virtualtourist.com's list of "World's Top 10 Ugly Buildings".

what a stupid list...I mean really, why even bother? Architectural tastes aside, this is just demonizing distinctive buildings in the name of a poorly formulated amateur opinion. While I'm not going to get into a silly rank order debate, I will say the Petrobas is one of the coolest buildings I've ever been to

ROM would have been great looking if it had been finished in the original glassing. Cost were to great, so they went cheap.
