The Death Ray and Other Epic Building Fails

This first building in this building fails post is 20 Fenchurch Street in London. And not only is it hideous, it is also a death ray that melted a car. The building even won the Carbuncle Cup in 2015 for worst new building in the UK. The chairman of the jury said “it is a challenge finding anyone who has something positive to say about this building”. And a town planner described the building as “a daily reminder never to let such a planning disaster ever happen again”.

Turns out the architect Rafael Viñoly has created many a monstrosity in his day. I think maybe he’s trying to melt people, lol. This is not his only epic building fail as these commenters point out:
