still_grrrCan we post animated icons?
Third largest library in North America, ugliest library in the world.
It's supposed to look like a peacock. Honestly. Why they would (a) want a library to look like a peacock, and (b) decide that prefab concrete is the best way to render a peacock in architectural form is beyond me. I take solace in the fact that when designing the foundations of Robarts, the engineers forgot to take into account that its fourteen stories would be filled with books. Hence, it is slowly sinking into the ground.
ETA: an icon of Giles hangin' at my College:
Just 'cause I think it would be cool if he did.
Damn the dissenters! Hurrah for old Trinity!
And also of the Fang Gang outside City Hall:
<- This is kinda an in-joke. Like all of Canada, living next to the USA has given Toronto an inferiority complex. We're always reiterating that we're a "world-class" city.
We're right up there with New York! Really!
