The rest of the story -- I saw this building for the first time because another group of buildings have been torn down. I forgot my glasses so I had to prop myself against my car and focus in full sun on the ground glass without and real clear vision. So it is blurred because I couldn't see to do the task. So it is artistic I guess......
