Another dubious government building in Boston

[mmcirvin]

The State Health, Education and Welfare Services Center on Beacon Hill isn't quite as awful as City Hall, but looks sort of half-melted and is covered in strange meandering exterior stairs and terraces in corrugated concrete. It's like something Le Corbusier would have designed after getting drunk with Antonio Gaudi. Apparently part of it was originally designed as a chapel for mental patients, which seems like the wrong sort of thing to build in a half cyclopean/half psychedelic motif like a surfaced remnant of the blasphemous undersea Temple of Dagon off Innsmouth.
