    The more oddly shaped your City's buildings are, the more likely they will be featured In photos for Travel Brochures.

        @neiltyson Just read about Frank Lloyd Wright's only skyscraper, in little Bartlesville, OK. Architecture is awesome!

        @neiltyson then Seattle will do very, very well on that front. Space Needle, the Public Library & EMP all superb examples of oddness. :)

        @SteveKarmazenuk Frasier was great for Seattle :) I used to live there, so have seen the buildings firsthand. They're fantastically weird.
