Existential angst at City Hall

Inside Boston City Hall

If you've ever wanted to know what it feels like to be trapped at the bottom of a giant concrete well with no hope of ever escaping, climb up the large steps inside City Hall, then look way up.

Whatever demonspawn put you in that hell at least was thoughtful enough to provide a piano on which to bang your head.

From the pit of the gallows ... and, yet, my soul does not fly free.

I love City Hall. But that picture makes me think of that scene in The Dark Knight Rises in the prison.

That building is odd. Has always reminded me of "Labyrinth", I bet Hoggle is in there.

I remember reading about City Hall was the goal was a design that gives openness and transparency. But when you look at it (except around summer-time sunset with shadows for an art-sy look), it cannot feel anymore opposite of that. This picture again supports that irony.
