Porsche Gets It's Own Welt-like Looking Building

JCLBoston · 04-10-2008, 11:51 PM

Hope this is not a repost.. I only found out about this today even though it's been under construction since like 2006. It's scheduled to open December 2008.

I think this is only supposed to be a museum and not a delivery center as well though. Either way.. looks impressive.. I like the roof deck (4th pic)!

[Mods.. feel free to move if it doesn't belong here]

How many Cayennes were sold to pay for that building? Hmmmm...

No wonder the mark ups on Porsches are so high...

It really reminds me of an airport terminal

That building is.... words can't describe it

The Welt puts this to shame. Still, having a building of that size being suspended that high is quite something, and I like how it gets wider the higher it gets.

There's just no orig. thought anymore. One company does something the next has to do it. Same holds true for movies, books, music, etc...just remake something, why bother working up something original.\\
