Thanks for providing the link!

But ... ye gods! those are three of the hurtingest excuses for design I have seen in a while.

I was particularly amused by the one that resembles (I presume inadvertently) an H.G.Wells fighting machine, complete with vast, cool intellectual eye.

I was going to bemoan the evident lack of monument design skill, but the real question is who did the selection to have howlers like these three as finalists?

Yes, what is wrong with the old brick style?
