Spiky skyline
Right beside the elegant Cultural Center of the Philippines in Pasay City is a building which houses the radio station DZRH and the Aliw Theater. To tell you the truth, I already think that the building is horrendous and it's made even more so by that… that thing! I have no idea what it is. I always thought that it was just some attention-getting devise of Star City, an amusement park farther down the road. But the more I look at it, the more it looks like a radio antenna tower dressed up for Christmas. Or is it Halloween?
Hello Hilda !
ReplyDeleteHalloween ? Not yet... Smile...
Yes, it is a radio antenna tower dressed up...
See You later.
Certainly odd, definitely spikey!

vraiment une architecture surprenante.
ReplyDeletetruly amazing architecture.
It looks odd but very eye-catching, perfect for the theme. You really HAVE to see it if you are passing by.
ReplyDeletethat is wild! And you caught all the differnt angles perfectly. That is some experimental architecture....and I like it! sort of..I think..
ReplyDeleteReminds me of "Ravan's Effigy Burning" in India on Dusshera,... See this link - http://www.unc.edu/~sramey/ravan.htm
ReplyDeleteIt is truly strange and it looks like it is coming to get you.
ReplyDeleteI've added you to the Odd Shots blogroll. Welcome to Odd Shots.
I agree with you -- it is very odd and I am not thrilled with it. Glad it's there and not here! Ü Great entry for odd shots! Come and see mine.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's a star or a wizard. MBC may look strange from the outside, but it's very simple inside, even boring.
ReplyDeleteI can see why it bothers you. we have lots of stuff like that around where I live. It also keeps things really interesting too!
ReplyDeleteA truly unique and unusual structure. Good catch! ThanX for visiting.
ReplyDeleteStrange structures indeed! Makes you wonder what passes through some architects minds...
ReplyDeleteWhat fantastic angles in this shot, Hilda.
ReplyDeleteWow Hilda that is really wild!!! It is certainly eye-catching!!!!
ReplyDeleteclawing at the sky!
ReplyDeleteOdd indeed .. it looks like a totem or tiki carving or even sort of like a Balinese dancer ...

It looks like some kind of cirque du soleil performance area. I guess it's something people love or hate.
ReplyDeleteIt is cool looking. Thanks for stoppin by & commenting on my "The Leaves Have Eyes" post.
ReplyDeleteOh my..I wouldn't want to have to look at that from my house everyday. It is Odd...Hilda..thank you for visiting my show-off male ducks post. ..Michelle
ReplyDeleteI'd say it looks like a Pumpkin exploded! Actually that taller building on the left looks quite interesting and scifi like. I wonder what the inside would look like with such an unusual shape.
ReplyDelete"Louis" would hate to look at that site very often! Mercy! "Louis" votes for Halloween.... Great choice for Odd Shots, Hilda!
