It’s stunning I would love to have a home like this.

I’d love to see the inside. This looks so cool

Amazing

they must be very strict about the no smoking rule

Eco-fuel!

Looks like a Roman bath

We've got concerts there now :D

That's great!

That is a very beautiful skate park.

Nice

They've done similar things in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona. Many of the shops built into the city and cathedral walls have sections of glass floor that contain tombs, building foundations, cellars, and wells.

This needs to be higher

I've seen a few of these used for defibrillators, have them in my village.

Hotel....for patients!!!!

Nice! After midnight all the patients have a rave!

The environment is sooooo much more uplifting than the standard hospital environment... What a great use of the space!

Wouldn't need that much reno really.

It makes sense as far as the design goes

Love it!!! We have a hospital that was converted from the hotel only they destroyed the hotel in the process of making the hospital

That is so pretty

My shopping mall now has a really nice medical center inside. It's really well done.

IMO, really not keen on this many mezzanines, it is just wasted space. It's a hospital, it would benefit from more floor space.

I wonder how many times they had someone banging on the window asking if they are open?

For those hungry for books

still is an entrance into the real subway, see those stairs on the side, those go down an extra level. This is a "Commercial Cut Out" which is quote common in the NYC subway system and were designed that way to use the extra space are retail. THere are steps to the left and right (as you can see on the right here) that go down to the subway system. Sorry, this is someone misleading or ignorant.

Brain silo

Train stations were built so beautifully

A McDonalds-Douglas?

With the ship horn as the door bell.

Caribou has better coffee than the mermaid brand!

This reminds me of the Old Spaghetti Factory

Very cool! You can't come out until you all reach a consensus. (Swings the vault door shut.)

You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave

It's nice that they are repurposing a few so that they don't all disappear completely.

What a hassle it must to have to change your shoes every time you go to work

they went off the rails with this design

I bailed someone out of that jail once in 2010. Good times.

I hate the penthouse. What idiot decided: "We have this beautiful round double towers, we should plop an ugly rectangle on top just so people will know it's a housing."

This isn't sad. If the building can't be repurposed into something commercially viable, it gets demolished and we lose that historic building. This is how preservation works, its how we save historic fabric.

Haunted by the ghosts of a construction worker, soldier, police officer, cowboy, biker and native American Indian.

Looks... Compact. I would not want to be the person working inside that booth all day
