Ministry of Economy in Mexico City

This is supposed to be the Ministry of the Economy building in Mexico City. It’s kind of hard to tell from this screen capture, but those supports have transition on both sides that meet in a point. Read John Aguilar says this super tight spot used to be sessioned back in the 80′s and early 90′s before there was a fence surrounding it. You can get a sense of it if you go to Google Maps and choose the street view, escept for that damned delivery truck that’s in the way at the crucial moment. I tried doing an image search for the building but came up empty handed, at least in English.

    It’s called “Hipódromo Condesa” and it’s (approx. address) 199 Zamora in Cuauhtemoc, Distrito Federal, Mexico

  3. That oddly looks like downtown Pomona, except downtown Pamona has more Mexicans. Seriously there’s a building that nearly identical to that with transitions on the pillars.
