Toursim Website Includes Toronto Museum Addition On Ugly Buildings List

...I agree. Here is the list, in link form to some images so you can see each of the "ugly" buildings.
And, of course, someone I work with pointed out that there are several buildings that should be on this list, like...
- Walmart
- Golftown
- strip malls in general
And don't forget about that fancy-schmancy Cathedral they want to build in north-end Saskatoon.

2. Zizkov Television Tower; Prague, Czech Republic

3. "The Beehive"; Wellington, New Zealand

4. Center Georges Pompidou; Paris, France

5. Federation Square; Melbourne, Australia

6. Petrobras Headquarters; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
