Ah Uzbekistan jail Hotels, very ugly indeed. Although Kazakhstan doesn’t exactly have the cleanest track record when it comes to hotel architecture either.

There’s also this one that’s so bad it’s hilarious.

haha i was thinking of that one for this thread. so funny. i stayed next to it couldn't get over it when walking by all the time. its quite a striking and surprizing eyesore you might unexpectedly come upon walking around. instead of heading toward it i always walked away.

i finally asked and if i remember right someone told me it was a college campus building? i may have mis-remembered that. might be a store or something? either way, i suppose its kind of ok though for those purposes, in a weird way.

San Diego has plenty of fugly to go around. To start the architect of 350 West Ash could't decide which ugly building to make so he just made em all.
