YAY!! ARCHITECTURE!!!

Have you seen ever this plan for the "palace of the soviets" in moscow, It was planned to be the tallest building in the world, about 1/2 a kilometer tall with an 80M (twice as big as statue of liberty!) sculpture on lenin on top!!!
Construction was started and they got as far as the foundations until work stopped when russia was invaded by germany. Eventually it was scrapped and the foundation hole was turned into the worlds largest swimming pool!!
Also it was built on the site of an fecking enormous cathedral, which was blown up 1st! Since then the cathedral has actually been rebuilt




Actually have just realized how much it resembles a wedding cake! except its for lenins wedding to himself!! nah, seriously tho it is super-sweet they shouldve' built it!!
