You are so wrong, pal!
A Polish friend (referencing posts from earlier this month) wrote to ask if indeed Madison’s Odana Road, or for that matter, the Humanities Building on the U of Wisconsin campus can even compare with the pukey-pea-green square of concrete that houses Poland’s Supreme Court, or the Linguistics Department of Warsaw University? The suggestion is that those two structures require more immediate intervention (a date with the bulldozer comes to mind) than do our own urban crown jewels of hideosity.
No, no, you are wrong. Compare, please:
The Polish Supreme Court (Warsaw Uprising Monument stands in front)
U of Warsaw Department of Applied Linguistics
Humanities Building at the U of Wisconsin
No brainer, right? I don't even need to bother with Odana Road. Everyone knows about the singular ugliness of Odana Road.
