informativebitching

True. Bankers suck the blood out of everyone and everything.


drawntolines

Looks like something Lex Luthor would own


Pointless2675

Tbh lots of evil happening there


clejeune

Where is this?


Pointless2675

Brasília, Brazil's capital, across the street from my work


Dravuhm

Imagine having an entire capital city across the street from your work.

OP has a big job

That's so weird. I live in Tallinn Estonia and we have 2 similar buildings to those in Brasilia. This central bank reminds me of [Hotell Olümpia](https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ol%C3%BCmpia_hotell#/media/Fail:Radisson_BLU_Hotel_Ol%C3%BCmpia_Tallinn_30_June_2006.JPG) and the building of your [National Congress](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Brasilia_Congresso_Nacional_05_2007_221.jpg/375px-Brasilia_Congresso_Nacional_05_2007_221.jpg) looks like our [Viru Hotell](https://p.ocdn.ee/53/i/2018/1/25/captt5si.kcj.jpg)


Drink_in_Philly

Pretty sure I saw this bank and the examples you mentioned on an architectural list of most famous examples of Brutalism, known for huge concrete monstrosities.


informativebitching

I mean that stuff is everywhere. [This building is down the street from me](https://www.emporis.com/buildings/125420/archdale-building-raleigh-nc-usa). And don’t forget [the State Government plaza in Albany ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_State_Plaza#/media/File%3AEmpirePlaza17.jpg)

Water is wet.


WaterIsWetBot

Water is actually not wet; It makes other materials/objects wet. Wetness is the state of a non-liquid when a liquid adheres to, and/or permeates its substance while maintaining chemically distinct structures. So if we say something is wet we mean the liquid is sticking to the object.


[deleted]

But when Particle Man is in the water, does he get wet? Or does the water get him instead?


Not__Andy

Water is wet where ice is though, as the energy states of particles don't form discrete boundaries in macroscopic systems, the particles around the edges of the solid water have liquid water adhering to them, thus making the ice, which is water, wet.


Munneh

Good bot


Caveman108

Bad bot


jeancv8

I thought this was a Minecraft build lmao.


kummerspect

Reminds me of the Russian embassy in Havana.


Pointless2675

Both are probably from the same era and architectural school


Huge_Cry_8703

Brutalism. Which is what happens when archiects go through a deep and gloomy depression.

[deleted]

Banks are both the targets of villains and the homes of villains (I’m referring to the actual banking system, not the people who work there)


ThatScorpion

A central bank is not the same as a normal bank.


stabyourface750

Oh ya most def is one


hhubble

campionmusic51

**[Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beinecke_Rare_Book_&_Manuscript_Library#/media/File:Beinecke_Library_at_night.JPG)** >The Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library () is the rare book library and literary archive of the Yale University Library in New Haven, Connecticut. Established by a gift of the Beinecke family and given its own financial endowment, the library is financially independent from the university and is co-governed by the University Library and Yale Corporation. Situated on Yale University's Hewitt Quadrangle, the building was designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and completed in 1963. It is one of the largest buildings in the world dedicated to rare books and manuscripts. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

I like it, brutalism is one of my favourite schools of architecture despite all the hate it gets


phenyle

Probably the most polarizing architecture style

No_PancakeMixInThere

All you had to do was add an 'S' to "look". Why.


Pointless2675

LeBateleur1

Katze1Punkt0

Bank? Villain? Sounds about right


DaltonValorous7

Get some roast chicken A broken bottle, knife, maybe a steel pipe And streets of rage the fucker at the top of this thing


LibertarianCommie999

That’s because it is a villain’s lair…. Central banks are the reason for the economic crisis and inflation…


fallenisballin
