QuoteAll you have to do is look at the Linc if you want an example of beautiful and profound  modern architecture

While I agree that the architecture of sports complexes has improved since the '60s I don't consider any of it profound or beautiful.

Quoteand when your there, take a look over at the Philadelphia skyline.

Really, this is too easy. I consider the Philadelphia skyline, like nearly all of this country's skylines, to be mostly a collection of mostly corporate junkitecture. Of course there are, and were, some truly "beautiful and profound" buildings that Philadelphians should be proud of, though. They all have one thing in common - They're old....











As far as I'm concerned the only piece of modern architecture in Philadelphia that would come close to being "beautiful and profound" is the PFSF building, which was built back in the 1930's...

I propose an architecture thread for this sermon, that way I can easily avoid it

Seriously, the Dow drops under 8000, and the "financial crisis" thread has been taken over by some douche whining about the direction of modern architecture.

That's what I love about :CF: with each consecutive post it sinks lower and lower, perpetually boggling the mind

When Michael Moore and Mitt Romney agree on your predicament and your fate, you probably should just self-immolate as quickly as possible.

The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

7552.  Lowest since 2002.

S&P - 775.  Lowest since 1997.  Blasting through the bear of 2002.

Oh happy days.

LOL @ people who think the sitting President has anything to do with the stock market

Diomedes

Yeah, almost 8 years of running the country and he has nothing to do with it.
