Boston City Hall

[mmcirvin]

"Charles Dodgson" mentions the legendarily awful Boston City Hall and its proud status as one of James Howard Kunstler's Eyesores of the Month, then complains that Kunstler's photo really doesn't do it justice. I agree: the picture hardly even shows the building. Here's a good view showing some of the windswept desolation of City Hall Plaza, and here's a better picture of "the good side".

I've always thought this building would provide a good location shot if one needed a Headquarters of the Evil Galactic Empire. It's always amazed me that public buildings were ever actually constructed in a style unashamedly known as "Brutalism".
