Prime tower

Not far from my place they are constructing the highest building in Switzerland, the Prime tower. The other day I was reading an article in "Blick am Abend", saying that they are having trouble with birds flying into the glass windows not being able to see that it is glass. Now there is a thought. Interesting that they haven't thought about that before. I could've told them. Remember this? And this? And there was a third birdie as well. Ripped out the article from the (free) paper and put it in the neighbours mailbox. After all, the birds flew into their glass balcony and dropped dead on mine. Like I said, not much for subtle messages.

oh boy - its awful! funny how the Swiss can't have minarets because they don't fit in with the traditional Swiss skyline but that hideous thing does.

Not as hideous as the Migros building at Limmatplatz!

hmm, I had to google it to see what you meant, its a tough call. but at least that one has the excuse of being built in the 80's (I think), no one had any taste in the 80's
