Obviously I am being facetious...But, at the same time, I had absolutely no expectation that UT would construct an architecturally pleasing building (even though UT Austin hosts one of the best architecture schools in the U.S.). It's just another overly expensive, unimpressive government building in Austin.

STILL see it being used. It's like "hey, we need to add a dash of something edgy to this big glass box"
