  1. I agree that the buildings that currently are being built all over are something to see and pieces of art in their own rights. But impractical! We have a new hospital wing that is more art that usable. Six floors open top to bottom, as far as you can see, but there isn't enough beds or rooms for patients. Now why not build a hospital that is working rather than a piece of art that has no use to the sick.
