Thank you, Virtual Tourist, for pointing out that the king has no clothes on. Some of us have known this for years, but it's nice to have other people agree.
ROM's Crystal ranked Number 8 among world's 10 ugliest buildings.

The local comments point out the obvious-- the utter lack of any common visual or architectural elements between the old square carved stone Romanesque museum and the new angled aluminum-and-glass uhh thing.

OTOH like the new Ontario College of Art'n'Design (http://www.raymondbach.com/sem4/toronto/about.html), in spite of the shock value I'm rather inclined to like it. It's different, and it doesn't scream at its neighbours. (Your bldg hasn't got beighbours and the OCAD's neighbours are low-rise uniform urban blah.)
