KUNSTLER'S CLEVELAND "EYESORE OF THE MONTH"

This will be a rare example of a posting on this blog that, on its own, won't say very much. Instead, we invite you to take a look at a link that appears in this blog's Link List, but is otherwise provided below. This will link you to a page on the website of James Howard Kunstler, renowned for, among other things, his authorship of the book "Geography Of Nowhere". He has been keeping a monthly 'serial' of usually modern buildings that he, wisely, considers to be "Eyesores". The October "Eyesore" just happens to be a very well-known Cleveland building. Although generally praised by Those Who Know Nothing About Architecture, this building looks like either something out of a cartoon, or, at the very least, a reflection in a funhouse mirror. Mr. Kunstler's take is much better. Check it out!
