What is the ugliest building you've seen on a college campus?

While GU has its share of ugly buildings, I'd say that the quad - in particular, Healy, Old North, and Dahlgren Chapel -- and White-Gravenor are classic and beautiful.

So what is it about libraries? I haven't read every post but right off the bat it seems like a lot of these ugly buildings are libraries.

There's enough crazy going on here that I kind of like it, especially on the inside.

Me too. I don't hate all Brutalist buildings, and they sometimes make for cool interiors.

Go Hokies! Bonus points for housing the School of Architecture.

Brutalist architecture at its finest/worst.

I went to Northwestern and we had a brutalist library too. Super ugly and a huge pain to find a classroom in. Just all these big flat useless concrete spaces too. If you google it the first results might be the music library, which is actually pretty. Keep scrolling until you find the concrete honeycomb.

The brutalist architecture actually quite worked in Loki for the TVA.
