Buildworld recently released a survey of the world’s ugliest buildings, six of which are located in the United States. Washington, D.C.’s J. Edgar Hoover Building topped the list at number two and Trump Tower in Las Vegas rounded out the tenth position. There’s no excuse for some of the crimes on this list—the Scottish Parliament Building, for example, or England’s Preston Train Station—but in some cases, ugly buildings are nothing more than the unintentional result of city managers and elected officials “wanting to try something new,” spending heaps of money on a building that didn’t quite work, then shrugging it off with “well, we bought it, now we have to live with it.”
