    This big golden turd building just opened in Edinburgh, it cost over a billion pounds and today after some heavy rain, the roof leaked so much it was like a swimming pool in parts.
    It's a lot better than the brutalist horror show it replaced, the old St James centre was voted one of the most badly designed buildings in Europe and all the negativity caused the architect to kill himself.

    • Harry Potter shop clones too. Apparently the Waverly Market is getting turned into some Harry Potter themed place. MadPhanLo
