H67 owns despite it's flaws, the biggest probably being right on the river and cold as hell even by montreal standards.

The ford foundation building is incredible if you ask me

He also worked on and completed the John Deere World Headquarters in Moline, IL

These are kinda cool and I've never seen them before

Another Montreal entry, the Place Bonaventure was at the time of its completion it the second largest commercial building in the world. At first sight from the ground it's pretty typical brutalist fare. We've seen better and we've seen far worse.

Looking a little prettier come night time

But appearances are often deceiving and usually all it takes is a small change in perspective.

The top floors are taken up by a hotel that surrounds a quadrangle with one of the greatest roof gardens I've ever seen, over 2 acres in size

And it's even more impressive close up

And what hotel would be complete without a heated swimming pool

Hell yeah post it. I thought about doing the winchester mystery house but I think it'd be better if someone who actually went there did it.

^^^^ thanks it looks good

The American Radiator building is an unmistakable part of the midtown manhattan skyline today, located just south of Bryant park I believe.

Surprisingly difficult to find good pictures of to share, it looks like something old school batman would be perched upon

If anyone wants to follow up with write ups and poo poo be my guest I don't have that sort of attention span anymore

I have no clue I stole them from wikipedia lol. Sounds about right though. They look totally different from his ordinary output. Check out the interior pics of the john deere world headquarters they're fancy as hell.

I can't remember how I found it*, but Brookfield place has an interesting interior if you ask me.

I'm not entirely sure what I think of Santiago Calatrava but I do know I absolulely adore him compared to frank gehry

*probably a deep wiki dive after looking at the west deadmonton mall to see how it stacked up against other shopping centers of canadian metros

This one is fairly close to where I live. It's called Wollaton Hall and apparently a batman film used the location. There's also a lot of deer that live in the grounds and every year, there's stupid tourists who get too close to the males. Anyway, it's a stunning building.

It's definitely a cool building but that style and that lighting remind me of something....

On to something much holier, the Temppeliaukio Church in Helsinki is pretty neat. Instead of flying buttresses and ornate features you'd associate with more southerly (and -catholic-) churches, this Lutheran number is built into the rock itself and it's definitely interesting to look at. Peter would be proud

Edmonton in Alberta's best known tourist ~~trap~~ attraction is the West Edmonton Mall, the largest in the world for quite some time and still probably worth checking out I guess if you're into that sort of thing. While younger me loved malls, older me is all about botanical gardens, especially greenhouses and conservatories. The Muttart Conservatory is probably one of the more unique ones.

Each of the pyramids showcases different biomes plus a seasonal one so there's plenty of plants to look at and pretend you're in a biodome on an alien planet when you're out of your mind on shrooms

The Tropical Islands Resort in Germany is the world's fourth largest building by volume and the largest indoor ~~petri dish~~ waterpark in the world! It's housed in a former airship hangar. You've probably noticed a running theme in most of my entries. Anyway, visit and get covid in style! (j/k, they're closed atm I think)

Some exteriors

The green spaces are pretty much the main draw for me

When the world is uninhabitable and we're all living in those things, thousands of people will still insist it's not that bad outside and spread conspiracy stories about how their friend's neighbor left the dome the other day and barely melted at all.

It's surprisingly difficult to find decent high res pictures of the Taipei 101 in my usual spots so uh it's just pictures I guess. Anyway it's one of my favorite buildings in the pacific rim and is made to look like a pagoda! Wow!

They love fireworks!

The most interesting thing is the giant dampener to keep the builing safe from earthquakes and typoons. AC/DC wrote a song about it
