I don't know about this particular one, but I got a really nice one on amazon for $90 and free delivery to my house, which was nice because it weighs a lot. Mine has little rooms with openings like this one but it also has open platforms that they like a lot better. My three cats love it. Here's the one I got Go Pet Club Cat Tree, 50W x 26L x 72H, Beige https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003WGGWQA/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_cAf4yb5YQZHWJ

I don't think they had turkey legs when I went in Summer 2011. There was a little stand near the entrance to the volcano as you walked down that sold Gyozadogs (more like Nikuman/Bao than gyoza outside). Also, this really amazing Krin Apple Tea Soda. that I wish I had gallons of.

Did they have the different popcorn flavors when you went? It was part of our mission to try them all. The Milk Tea popcorn and curry were pretty great.

It's cool to see the Salem Witch Trials make an appearance on this subreddit. I actually wrote like a young adult novella about one of the leading accusers of the trials, Ann Putnam Jr., who was just a little girl during the time period. Super interesting. If I can't shameless plug here lemme know! (Otherwise, here's the link.)

I was able to visit a few years ago and stand where she was buried. It was a little trippy to think that the actual remains of somebody I'd turned into a character were buried right under me.

I recently read a book from the architecture library where I work on Torre David that provided great analysis on how the vertical community came to be, etc. I highly recommend it.

Torre David: Informal Vertical Communities https://www.amazon.com/dp/3037782986/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_u-91AbHF7AS8V

It’s kind of expensive, but if one can track it down through their library, I highly recommend it.

Yeah, I think that's probably what he was talking about though it's been a good 40+ years since he told me about it. This is the guy that had told me about it, he had an engineering background as well.

I'm done explaining it, but I'm an exmo who has better things to do with his life than break your true order of circle jerk.

This 2,169 sq. ft. house made of lego took 10,079,829 pieces. Which comes to 4,647 pieces per square foot.

Per Wikipedia the Chang-Gu World Trade Center is 896,700 sq. ft..

So that would require 4,166,964,900 lego, not accounting for any structural differences between building a skyscraper and a 2 story house.

You can get 790 pieces of lego on [amazon](LEGO Classic Large Creative Brick Box 10698 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NHQF6MG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Y5ktybPNSBE3D) for 46.99.

So roughly $247,855,291 in materials alone to build a building that size out of lego. I wouldn't call that being cheap.

(Please feel free to check my math, I have a degree in history math is not my forte.)

It was set to reopen in a limited capacity, with the expectation that it would be further renovated later. LSU, the school responsible for the facilities, convinced FEMA that the building ought to be a total write off and was effectively useless... despite being nearly ready for a limited reopening. For whatever reason FEMA complied, granting LSU a significant larger payout that they otherwise would have received, essentially funding building the current LSU downtown medical buildings. And Big Charity sits in the center of the downtown area now, vacant and unused

Edit: Here’s a documentary around the issue. It’s somewhat biased against LSU, but is generally reputable and make a decent enough case

Just mount one of those Darth Vader night lights w/associated light saber on the outside, that makes it look like he's breaking through the wall.

I like to think this building makes a cameo in Influx by Daniel Suarez.

Well, you obviously haven't read this.

The tldr is: old book on totalitarianism.

It would still be cheaper then building a mill.

That building is more then the local equivalent of 400 dollars
