Building Eats Smaller Building

Building Eats Smaller Building, originally uploaded by Melsky.

This building always reminds me of a big square cthulu type monster eating something. Seriously, buildings on pillars with this much glass make me nervous. I guess it's because I come from earthquake country or something, but I think about stuff like that a lot. Then again, brick buildings seem so solid but unreinforced masonry just crumbles in an earthquake. That's why you don't see many brick buildings in California, most of them collapsed in some earthquake or another, and I think it's really expensive to build to code with bricks there now.
