I can't believe this building has its own thread. I thouhgt I'd put this one in the ulgy buildings thread.
Honestly though, its one of the more entertaining buildign on camps, it can look real nice at night with lit glass in the roof and exotic windows. A lot of the building was very forward thinking, with clear, unpaned glasswork and some stone too. its like the little deformed orphan that no one loves and that makes me more fond of it.
However, the building is a disaster on the inside and a pain in the ass to get around in. It sohuld be knocked down, but mroe infill cr*p will replace it.
[QUOTE=Loopy;2887873]Anyway, here is a good example of the kind of building that is considered acceptable by today's University community:/QUOTE]
Isn't it horrible, at least there is actually going to be a semblance of a wall in Madison now. However, the city is sh*t for urban planning. With all the new constrcution the university is doing, none of it is big enough and all of it is backward. So many buidings like Hummanities and Ogg were built with the future in mind, now we get cr*p.
I got so pissed, i designed my own masterplan for the SE dorm rennovations and campus development.
