Wow, I've never ever in my entire life heard anyone say that they love brutalism.

such an awful building. i was driving past riverside about a year ago and i was a man passed out on the sidewalk, and about 100 ft later there was another man passed out holding a bottle of booze. it was 1 in the afternoon.
