Ski Mask Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 that thing is gonna fall apart once the first stiff breeze hits it. I was shocked to see photos of it being covered the other day. it looks fucking awesome, but none of the structural issues have been addressed. just window dressing.

TresOne Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Pyongyang- Ryugyuong Hotel-105 floors I read that construction on this motherfucker had recently started up again.. good looks. That thing is so eerie - sat as an abandonned concrete skeleton for years. What the fuck does N.Korea need a 105-floor hotel for when half the country doesn't have electricty or food...

autoteller Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 i remember being on the redneck version of myspace (fubar.com) and seeing some sort of halfassed article written about the skyscraper in dubai, and remembering seeing hundreds of comments like 'GO THERE, AND THE TERRORISTS WILL KILL YOU'. and they will.
