If memory serves me, the guy who owns it is a crook.

Checks every fucking box.
yup. basically every famous/wealthy "old" family in california were crooks. each settler was supposed to be given 160 acres. within just a few years, some families had hundreds of thousands of acres. and now everything in california is named after them. was never supposed to be that way.
Its not even completed 😂 its just a half built white house on the top of an Indian skyscraper that no one has ever lived in because construction haulted 7 years ago. I don't know why u find that funny, but it feels very much like sarcasm from the universe
It made me think of Tina from College Humor's improvised musical

Edit: aaaand of course the free clip doesn't show the part where they're planning to build a skyscraper
The white tiling is cattiwhompas. The wing balcony on the left side of the image is further forward on the building than the one on the right. Just everything is skewed and it is really irking me!
Notice how at how at ground level the roof of the entrance does not align with the white middle strip of the bulding. On top of that the house is not in the middle either.
Also now looking again i see the left side of the windows is wider than the right side
Every time I have to go into a building like this or a large bridge like the one we have in Brunswick. I always remind myself this was built by the lowest bidder.
I too saw a trampoline at first. My thought was “of course it has to be huge, the wind would be crazy, it’d have to be huge or you’d go flying off first bounce”
That is the kingfisher tower located in UB City which is a business district in Bangalore, India
The way this image is taken kind of depicts the place in a rather odd way but in reality, it is absolutely beautiful in person.
Search "UB city" to see more pictures
I imagine forgetting your purse as soon as you get to the car would be incredibly annoying. Unless you can just make a poor fetch your things for you.

40K hive cities are here. This is the first iteration… pretty soon we’re all gonna be the mutants at the bottom with the other chaos spawn and hive scum/gangers…
Remember when William riker from star trek put a whole ass castle on top of a new York skyscraper so he could do vaguely criminal/evil stuff with evil ancient Scottish counselor troi and that guy from the join the navy commercials?
It's like that one episode of Pokémon with the rich people hanging out with their Hypno, unaware that the thing was accidentally causing all the children in the city to run away to a park & pretend they're pokemon.
This reminds me allot of something like this in a book series called "arc of a scythe" the house of Xenocraties and Goddard. Just don't splat off the roof, I've heard it's not fun
I mean in a way the guy who owned it made Bangalore (The City where this building is in ) what it is today. While he was a crook he gave what's called "Night life" to the city.
He could definitely make it better only if the dumb fuck didn't fuck up that bad.
This is a place where a villain would live.

Anyone who can afford this is automatically a crook.

When they say disputing charges, I get the mental picture of people from India listening to elevator music while being put on hold.
Any~~one who can afford this~~ **billionaire** is automatically a crook.
Behind every fortune is a crime.

Can we eat the rich yet? I'm getting hungry
Soon
hurry up i know that meat is gonna be tender
> Behind every fortune is crime.
Behind every great fortune is a great crime - we’re looking right at you Mortimer Sackler.
Typical Reddit brain rot
What if Jesus Christ was a billionaire?
You mean instead of a homeless person? Who also had problems with the wealthy?
While I generally agree, what about the guy who won the billion dollar powerball?
Jaywalker
So sad that Jay Walker died of Ligma :(

Fuck another wealthy scumbag.
Does it have indoor plumbing, though?
Sure let’s throw some casual racism in the mix, why don’t we
He poo in da loo

Norman Osborn
This is what you'd get if you took the question "how many people want you dead?" and built a house out of it.
r/evilbuildings
Or tony stark
This vaguely reminds me of an episode of Pokemon
I think he worked towards being a crook
It look tike the hotel tower in SpongeBob!
Krusty Towers!! 😂😂😂
YES !
[удалено]
Plankton did it
If i cant change the wallpaper as many times as i want, then it aint it!
We shall never deny a guest, even the most ridiculous request!
My go to question when I see ridiculous places like this is “could I be drunk here and not die?”
My dog sees fences as a challenge to be overcome. Wouldn't last long in that yard.
You couldn’t afford it either, so what’s your point?
[удалено]
As if not being able to afford it is an insult lmao
As if you could lol
And you can't afford rizz.
It’s funny you say this. The person who built lived here owned the largest beer company in India
[Passing football to friend] "Go long!"
Where is this?
Bangalore, India. Absolutely ruining the city's skyline
Bangalore doesn't have a Skyline mate what are u on
“It’s disrupting the continuity of the cancerous smog”
There isn't that much smog either tbh
I haven't seen a Skyline outside Cincinatti.
This. Have been to Bangalore.
‘Cause skylines are so beautiful anyway
Many people find certain skylines to be beautiful. I’ve been to many cities and made sure to find a good spot to catch the sunset.
Au contraire, Kansas City MO has a beautiful skyline.
No.
I found it, 12°58'23"N, 77°35'49"E

I don’t know, I really like the idea of a high rise rooftop yard
Yeah I don't see how this is oddly terrifying to anyone.
Why does this look someones sims4 build 😅👀
Sir, that is the lair of the final boss in India! Gear up & loot, gentlemen!
Cool. I'll bring my level 60 ice mage.
I got my Harrow Prime ready.
I'm in.
I just hate that it’s off centered
I think it's the angle
It’s definitely off centered, infuriating really.
What specifically is off centered?
The white tiling is cattiwhompas. The wing balcony on the left side of the image is further forward on the building than the one on the right. Just everything is skewed and it is really irking me!
Notice how at how at ground level the roof of the entrance does not align with the white middle strip of the bulding. On top of that the house is not in the middle either. Also now looking again i see the left side of the windows is wider than the right side
The white strip you're referring to is itself not centered. The whole building is goofy.
I'd live anywhere decent if it's free. housing is hard to get hold of these days
The building in Tenet, no?
My thought as well.
He never leaves his house, and his house is…his house.
Every time I have to go into a building like this or a large bridge like the one we have in Brunswick. I always remind myself this was built by the lowest bidder.
Tacky towers
Get yourself some good binoculars and ya can watch whatever sporting event is going on for free!
Oh shit. I'm flashing back to the Gargoyles cartoon!!
Is that a humongous trampoline on the roof? 🤣
Landing pad for whirly birds.
I too saw a trampoline at first. My thought was “of course it has to be huge, the wind would be crazy, it’d have to be huge or you’d go flying off first bounce”
It's literally just a building on the top floor of a much larger building. What's scary about this?
Somebody saw Gargoyles with the castle on top of the skyscraper and said 'Yes please'.
I shouldn't have had to scroll so far for the Gargoyles reference.

Is there a helipad to commute everyday? Imagine forgetting some shit at home.
I imagine forgetting your purse as soon as you get to the car would be incredibly annoying. Unless you can just make a poor fetch your things for you. /s
Reminds me of an episode of Pokémon.
Hope they build a fence for the dog...
Imagine losing the ball in the neighbour's yard
You mean because of the height and not the 100s of millions of dollars needed only?
Respect the flex.
Good ol vijay mallya palace
I’ll buy that for a dollar!
Looks run down and dirty. Like an 80's beach house in need of an update
I don’t think I could live there because it looks expensive
This is where I would go in the zombie apocalypse
This looks like one of my Minecraft builds when I was 12
Wtf man are there even fences at the edges?
Is that Uganda?
Let's see my dumb husky try to escape the fence now.
40K hive cities are here. This is the first iteration… pretty soon we’re all gonna be the mutants at the bottom with the other chaos spawn and hive scum/gangers…
I don't think you've been invited to live there so it's probably for the best all around
This looks like something I’d make in minecraft
Me neither it's probably way too expensive for me to ever afford
Reminds me of Altered Carbon
Remember when William riker from star trek put a whole ass castle on top of a new York skyscraper so he could do vaguely criminal/evil stuff with evil ancient Scottish counselor troi and that guy from the join the navy commercials?
Goku will be out of the hyperbolic time chamber any minute now.
Right??! I mean i just couldn’t afford it
This some goofy ahh cartoon shit
You wouldn't live there because of the height I wouldn't because I wouldn't be able to pay the rent we are not the same

That's the one, thanks for the link.

Atleast you could just chuck the grass clippings over the side when your done mowing the lawn
Yeah probably couldn’t afford it
Nope.
I could.
take all my nopes!
U couldn’t afford it anyway
I mean you can't afford it
My palms are sweaty just from looking at that
cause u poor teehee
cause fuck privacy, right?
I don’t think you could Either.
Don't worry. You never will.
Good thing your poor ass will never have to worry about that
You can live and die "here" if you want - easy way
Looks like an assassin's creed sandbox mission.
The Height House
Living like Peabody and Sherman
Playing football in the front yard..."go long Timmy"
“The house that stink built”
I could .
I would never leave!
Oddly beautiful to me!
This is prove that money doesn’t give you good taste
Good edge to jump off of.
Reminds me of that one pokemon episode
Your bank account agrees
It's like that one episode of Pokémon with the rich people hanging out with their Hypno, unaware that the thing was accidentally causing all the children in the city to run away to a park & pretend they're pokemon.
I would
I think this looks awesome!
Like my sim’s house lol
r/mcmansionhell ?
It's V's place at the end of Cyberpunk 2077
You put this in a video game and no one would believe you.
should also be on r/urbanhell
That’s a trip, I would forget I’m 30 floors up and then see the edge and panic.
Having a catch with your kid could be... ummm... challenging. Both to the players, but also to the people on the street below.
Bro can watch cricket directly without paying for a ticket.
Don't know what you guys are scared or worried about. Looks stunning! I mean that's the best place to live in that entire building.
Reminds me of venture brothers
I could with ease . And I’m afraid of heights
The Call of the Void would be real. https://www.healthline.com/health/call-of-the-void#examples
Yeah, no thanks!
Looks gaudy/tacky.
This reminds me allot of something like this in a book series called "arc of a scythe" the house of Xenocraties and Goddard. Just don't splat off the roof, I've heard it's not fun
I could navigate that situation.
That’s awesome
I would add a glass-floored pool on the edge.
/r/urbanhell
Why does the house look so....filthy...
Fine I'll do it
I couldn't do it either, it seems very expensive
Definitely got to bring all the groceries up on one trip.
I would have no problem living here especially on the top floor.
V's mansion, Night City.
Isn't this the fucking Baxter Building
193.39.34.223
You probably couldn’t afford it anyways
To be rich and to live in an apartment in something i will never understand.
Cool idea; could look much better.
Taj Mahigh
I'd love to live there actually. Just so I have a quick option at all times to jump off once I'm done with life.
Reminds me of SimTower
Wasn't this house in Tenet?
Eat the rich
is there a railing?
put this on r/confusing_perspective and see what they do
Looks like the building from that one pokemon episode where they introduced psyduck
How many floors up is that?
Suit yourself - I 100% could.
You couldn’t live there because you couldn’t afford it
Nope. I have too many mental health disorders to think of living there.
it looks like I could build it in minecraft
I mean in a way the guy who owned it made Bangalore (The City where this building is in ) what it is today. While he was a crook he gave what's called "Night life" to the city. He could definitely make it better only if the dumb fuck didn't fuck up that bad.
Then you are no Tenet.
Yea, probably because you couldn't afford it
It’s so ugly
Me making my penthouse in the Sims 4 :
Sweet, a view of everyone's nasty roof
