Nice, France: La Tete Carrée Library

It's not the best photo you'll ever see of this building, thanks to the fact it was taken through a pane of glass on a small sightseeing train.

Then again, who can resist?

It's the Nice Public Library, and the architecture involved is called "Thinking Inside the Box." This stands 85 feet high, and the idea is to combine art and education.

Opinions differed on how well this worked. But one thing is certain - it got noticed.
