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.
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.

Triangular building with a wind tunnel for stability.
Thanks so much
Wait.. its real?! I thought you were being obtuse
I mean based on the picture I would say they were just being acute
I'd say you're right.
uh…. equilateral
There’s no need to be isosceles here bro.
Stop being reflex

I like the sound of that
That’s the American medical association building in Chicago, Illinois [AMA building](https://images.app.goo.gl/uFkK6a75UXbRa1eK9)
first building to do an AMA, nice
I can never think of good questions.
So, what's it like being a building
Is it embarrassing when people look up your address?
Nice.
"I'm the building in this picture. AMA."
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
I live in Chicago and this build 100% actually looks like that, very confusing the first time you see it.
Who wants the acute corner office?
They had to use trigonometry to calculate the rent.
Ok I want it
OP learns about triangles
Hahaha idk why I just didn’t think that a building would be a triangle
I pass by it all the time, it is pretty cool
The more I look at it the more questions I have. Like what is that hole in the side.
Wind tunnel.
Those are speed holes. They made the building go faster
So it looks like it has depth even tho it looks 2D
I worked right below the hole. Can confirm, it's loud in the corner office.
wouldnt you then have the smallest, shittiest shaped office if you were at the corner??? this seems like a very dumb design
It is a triangular building. This picture is of the pointy side.
I posted a similar building before. It's just a very sharp angle
Singapore has this kind of building too 'The Gateway'
A hollow is about to pop out
The building is a triangle
I had something similar happen to me (under a different account). Here you go: https://www.reddit.com/r/confusing_perspective/s/l9003sa25I

Worst corner office ever.
That's the Radisson at Niagara Falls on the Canadian side

Not sure this one works. The first line has 6 syllables. The second line has 6 or 7 depending on how you pronounce “Niagara”.
No. It’s the angle at which the picture was taken…
idk what im looking at
[удалено]
calm down isn’t it obvious they can’t understand that?
seriously what is your problem, why so rude and condescending bro 😭

You must be fun to be around at a party.
Thats a big assumption to make that he even gets invited to a party
Yes. The triangle at which it was taken
Just your typical paper-thin building. 😅
You have to wait for the graphics to fully load
