I'm here in Winston-Salem for the Bookmarks Festival and the level of ironic municipal discourse in this town is second only to what I experienced in Lawrence KS. It probably helps that the skyline features what is fondly known as the Phallus Palace.

Here's more about how Winston-Salem erected its iconic Phallus Palace https://www.ncrabbithole.com/p/wachovia-headquarters-winston-salem-nc-resembles

So, What is Winston-Salem's Tallest Building SUPPOSED to Look Like?

Three decades ago, famed architect César Pelli revealed plans for a skyscraper that's now an iconic part of a North Carolina city's skyline. Here's what the top is actually meant to resemble. Really.

@annaleen I'm guessing the architect isn't Jewish. Same as the model Michaelangelo used for the statue of David.
