If you're talking eyesore/disaster buildings in Seattle, the EXP has to take the cake. Since it's inception, it regularly makes the top 10 worst buildings in the world list.

Intentionally trying to make a high profile R&R museum look like Hendrix's smashed guitar was a doozy of an idea for Paul Allen to sign off on - not to mention charging almost $20 a heads to get in. Although I think Allen's heart was in the right place, he knows as much about the museum business as he does about the cable business, as the death spiral chart of CHTR can attest to.

As for the library, it is indeed an anomaly for something like this to built in Seattle and quite disproportionately funded compared to any other non-sports related project I can think of - but I like it cause it makes me feel like I'm in a Phillip K. Dick novel!
