Just Bad Design

Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto Canada. Is this the ugliest building in the world? There are many 'modernized' old buildings around the world ruined by un-imaginative and artistically challenged architectual ambition. This is one of them. It looks like a horrible accident where an industrial shed fell from the sky onto an old building and no one bothered to fix the wreckage. The two styles clash badly and just don't go together. It looks just plain wrong.
