Old Trafford, Manchester, England

Home of the fucking Man U scum, but there aren't many stadiums in the world that goes bananas like this place.

Ok, I'm bending the rules a bit and including "structures" with buildings and houses.....
This IS a structure since a wall is built around
the entire perimeter, making it a fortress....DEF one of my faves.

Typical propoganda from me i guess

Dubrovnik

Walhalla on the Danube ~ idea of the 20-year-old Crown Prince Ludwig I of Bavaria in 1807

this is one of my favourite places in the world. whenever i go back home to Bavaria i go back to the Walhalla. it's a place close to my home town that i used to love to go to just to chillout at on sunday afternoons or to hang out with friends at nite on the w-e's or even to watch the sunrise over the Danube after a nite of going out

Andrea (or Laura) what was that building in NYC that we liked? The one that looked like a ski jump or something? It was near FAO Schwartz I believe.

W.R. Grace Building

The Pisa Cathedral

I tried to find the exact story, but when a tour guide was telling us about it, there is some story about the dark column in the facade being a lover's column and if you and your love go and see it together, you will be in love forever.

^^ YEAH!! that place is awesome, it almost looks like you could snowboard off it (except that would be crazy scary woah).. NYC in general is an architect's dream *goes to look for pictures*

(ok my post is referring to Josh's.. damn you Margaret and your nimble fingers!)

I love Art Deco, ever since I saw the silent film Metropolis, it made me obsessed with the industrial age's opulance and arrogance.

That's why I heart NYC.

Yes, I'm a fan of Gaudi, as I do want to stop there for a while before Ibeetha.

Frank Gehry is got great modernwork and apprently there is a awesome documentary about him.

The same applies here. Welcome to the 22nd Century!

and this is the "Piazza del Campo" in Siena, Italy. I could sit in the middle of this town for years and watching peeps go by. It's my favorite place in the world, (but mind you I haven't been everywhere.)

Touchdown Jesus

Posted by Irishaddict on Feb-13-2007 19:24:

My favourite part of Coventry, in the city centre by the Cathedral. Feels like you are walking through old Italy.

London Bridge as seen from the Thames. I know it's not a building, but I have to say it was a totally surreal experience to see something like that in real life after seeing countless pictures of it in books etc.

That brings back good memories of "Queer as Folk"

This is my favourite building in Detroit...

The (Abandoned) Train Station

From Windsor you can see it and it looks like a giant gothic skeleton, sort of tragic but also very cool.

TransAmerica Building - San Francisco

Posted by rabbitjoker on Feb-13-2007 20:06:

Pompidou, Paris's Modern Art Museum

-------

This is a really cool building. The idea was to make it look as if they put all the pipes, heating ducts and everything on the exterior of the building - sort of a building inside-out.
