Architecture Duplication
Posted by Charles Mudede on Mon, May 4, 2009 at 10:58 AM
At the point where 6th meets Yesler... 
See what I see?
The incomplete building deliberately echoes the older (and second most important) building (in Seattle).

I see nothing that indicates that they aren't actually the same building shot from different angles other than Charles saying so.

You know, if you outsource the architecture plans overseas, it's a lot cheaper to build more of the same kind of box.

I don't understand... are they two pictures of the same building and Mr. Mudede is noting that it matches the curves of the Columbia Tower?
The way that Mudede has worded the heading it made me think he was posting pictures of two different, but identical, curvy buildings with red insert.

Olympic Tower and City Center Tower are another interesting pair. Ditto Seattle Tower and the 1st WaMu.

Top pic, building on the right is the biggest penis-echoing building west of the Mississippi....
Even that show "Almost Live" made fun of its obvious penile qualities, years ago........

I am so tired of Mudede and his "inside" commentary. It's like he expects everyone to be able to read his fucking mind, because honestly, much of what he writes is just a meandering road of random associations that it would require such a special ability to even begin to decipher. I used to think maybe I just didn't "get it" or understand his sense of humor or that maybe I lacked enough of an eccentric knowledge base to "get him", but I'm beginning to think otherwise. He reminds me of that insecure, not-so-smart kid in high school who would use large words (often not knowing what they meant) to make himself sound legit.
