This is redeem147's least favourite building in Toronto


The gold coloured building actually has gold embedded into the glass of each window. Apparently it reduces the heating bills

Something that always amuses me about Toronto is that they decided to build a giant phallic symbol downtown (the CN Tower) and then decided to give it a testicle by putting the Skydome directly below it. *facepalm*

LOL! I never thought of that before. That's really funny!

You don't even want to know what pops into my head when I see pictures of the Chicago Spire or the Beijing Olympic Stadium.

OMG! *falls off chair*

Dude, there's no way the designers of those didn't know what they were doing!

[sparkins-mob.livejournal.com]

Seriously! Though I think they did end up changing the design of the Beijing Olympic Stadium. Thankfully.

Hehe! That's too funny!

That is not a testicle. Open the dome and it's a vagina.

*snort* Fair enough.

Great pictures of Toronto. I always love visiting there. We're going in September to see Cirque de Soleil for Gary's birthday.
