Has this ever happened to you:
So you are at the bar with some of your
architecture buddies and you get into an argument over whose phallus is taller
Perisphere and Trylon was bigger than the Washington Monument, and you never could compare the two
off them. Well, now you can with The Worlds Tallest Buildings Diagram Database, a
huge database of illustrated built work from Mechanical structures to Bridges.
The database will even answer your burning questions about how do Hugh Stubbins Associates stack up against each other.
And who says architects don’t have a good sense of
humor.
