Question of the Day

What's your favorite piece of weird architecture?

Mine is, hands-down, the former (it has since been torn down) Women's Clinic in Papa Shakes' hometown of West Lafayette, Indiana.

No, that's not a joke. That is really and truly—nipples domed skylights and all—an actual Women's Clinic, which once stood on 24th and Ferry on the north side of the hospital, almost across the entrance to Columbia Park.

Longtime Shakers will recall I've mentioned this clinic before; Mama Shakes recently dug out the slide (!) and had a print made for me so it could be scanned and posted.
