Architecture Art on Archchitecture

on Whose woods these are?
This on the north wall of a new building in Pioneer Square called (as far as I can tell) 401 Fifth Ave. What the image captures is the mood of northwest noir. In these woods is a corpse, and the man who brought the corpse here is, of course, a serial killer.
Seduced!
I give in. This wall of tiles might very well turn out to be Seattle’s most surprising (and successful) architectural happening this year. The way it’s outrageous is the right way.
The wall of the downfall:
What kind of message is this work of art sending to the prisoners in the jail across the street? What does a man caged in King County Jail think when he sees this horrible series on the corner of the five-story parking building?
Comments
Jeez - they look like falling bodies. Is that what they are? Kind of a disturbing image along the side of a parking garage.
What the fuck? That's disgusting.
Mumbling weirdos on the bus have more coherant thoughts on architecture than this.
I have had liquid shit coming out of my ass while sick that could make a more coherant discussion on architecture than anything Charles has posted....ever.
Hmmmm wonder if that pushed Slog over the edge. Will this be censored? hmmmmm....
any better/bigger pics?
Who tells charles that he has good ideas? Someone has to be because he wouldnt continue to spout out crap like this otherwise.
You arent an architect chaz, and your opinions on the matter are like your opinions on economics. without basis or merit.
pic #1 is the New County Office Building- word is that it's going to be officially named the MLK building
Didn't a woman kill herself by jumping off the Koolhaas parking garage a few years ago? Definitely sick.
As usual Charles, you've got good eyes; the photographs are by Glenn Rudolph.

I vote this sentence for Metro's new slogan: "The way it’s outrageous is the right way."
investigatory journalist: WRONG!!!!
the choices are the people's building, the tyree scott building, the dorothy bullitt building, or the doc maynard building. NOT the martin luther king building. i know whereof i speak.
Is that "Tumbling Man" by Michael Spafford that used to be in the Kingdom?
@12:
the internal mailstop code was changed from NCOB to MLK, so, you tell me.
