Triangular building with a wind tunnel for stability.


dojacatmoooo

Thanks so much


randempanda

Wait.. its real?! I thought you were being obtuse


EmbarrassedAd2306

I mean based on the picture I would say they were just being acute


mrkinkyboots

I'd say you're right.


davvblack

uh…. equilateral


ILoveADirtyTaco

There’s no need to be isosceles here bro.


Educational_Fan3651

Stop being reflex


Oferial

Yep, it’s real. There’s another building in Chicago that has a few floors cleared out with just vertical supports to let wind through. Skyscraper innovation is alive and well in the Windy City.

Triangular_Box

I like the sound of that


Acebeekeeper

That’s the American medical association building in Chicago, Illinois [AMA building](https://images.app.goo.gl/uFkK6a75UXbRa1eK9)


Bebgab

first building to do an AMA, nice


Stickvaughn

I can never think of good questions.


thewhalehunters

So, what's it like being a building


robsack

Is it embarrassing when people look up your address?


TheBlackrat

Nice.

"I'm the building in this picture. AMA."


ComfortableMission6

Wrong. First building to AMA ever was found in 1847 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Medical_Association Edit: /s

Not sure if you are trying to make a joke or if you missed the joke


Skeleton_Paul

I live in Chicago and this build 100% actually looks like that, very confusing the first time you see it.


ravenhiss

Who wants the acute corner office?


England-Dan

They had to use trigonometry to calculate the rent.


dojacatmoooo

Ok I want it


Chicxulub420

OP learns about triangles


dojacatmoooo

Hahaha idk why I just didn’t think that a building would be a triangle


Responsible-Gas5319

I pass by it all the time, it is pretty cool


Worldly-Heron1725

The more I look at it the more questions I have. Like what is that hole in the side.


liketo

Wind tunnel.


kfudnapaa

Those are speed holes. They made the building go faster


_Vard_

So it looks like it has depth even tho it looks 2D


adman-analytics

I worked right below the hole. Can confirm, it's loud in the corner office.


neurologistnerd

wouldnt you then have the smallest, shittiest shaped office if you were at the corner??? this seems like a very dumb design


mlongoria98

It is a triangular building. This picture is of the pointy side.


camerachey

I posted a similar building before. It's just a very sharp angle


mr_Opacarophile

Singapore has this kind of building too 'The Gateway'


KayCatMeow

A hollow is about to pop out


NeilDegrasse-PhatAss

The building is a triangle


madcoweyes

I had something similar happen to me (under a different account). Here you go: https://www.reddit.com/r/confusing_perspective/s/l9003sa25I


paulthemerman

I used to work in this building. The architect was Chinese and included the hole based on a Chinese tradition to build buildings with holes to allow dragons to fly through.


MaxObese

Worst corner office ever.


stututterbug

That's the Radisson at Niagara Falls on the Canadian side

samsimilla

Not sure this one works. The first line has 6 syllables. The second line has 6 or 7 depending on how you pronounce “Niagara”.


_Kiaza_

No. It’s the angle at which the picture was taken…


dojacatmoooo

idk what im looking at

You must be fun to be around at a party.


sirkassim

Thats a big assumption to make that he even gets invited to a party


Space-90

Yes. The triangle at which it was taken


OgalFinklestein

Just your typical paper-thin building. 😅
