gasometer

Vienna Gasometer City (which was from where I took this shot) soon is to be complemented by probably one of the ugliest examples of modern architecture, the lop-sided blocks (they really are lop-sided, it's not only the wide angle I chose for this photo even though it helped).

Just imagine you living in one of them and each day, when looking out of the window, seeing crooked towers which (your mind will keep telling you) might collapse any moment. It is fine to see them on rare occasions I guess, but I personally certainly would choose another view out of the (lop-sided ...) window.
