I’m not sure if this image will give you the exact same effect I experienced, but this building really gave me impression it’s two dimensional, plus it’s transparent windows and stuff… remember those 2D building coulisses often used in old western movies? That’s what we’re talking here! This is Nix Professional Building that is located on the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas. It was completed in 1931 and was the first hospital inside a skyscraper. It is the only hospital with doctor’s offices, hospital beds, and parking garage in one building. Previously: “Transparent Desktops”, “Transparent Desktops 2″ :)
This must be the world’s skinnyiest building! Here is another image taken at the very same location, only at night time…

wtf?!!
kinda lame…
Heh, yeaha, that building looks really thin! :)
Holy shizzlnizzle I would like to see that myself
woah….
what if i was in there and it snapped in half?!
cool
I live in san antonio and i have never seen that building… where is it?
This is real….I’ve seen this one, or one like it near the Alamo area…It looks really neat upclose but it is in an awkward position, so you can ONLY look up at it.
thats a neat trick.
ME!!!: It’s on Navarro (downtown), somewhere between Commerce and Houston.
wot ever
wtf? how could u fit in there?
i bet the building is shaped as a pyramid except for the top part, that’s why you can’t see the other side.
It is a triangle building.
Hope you’ know That.
Nice kathryn…Smart like me.
i would have to agree with jimmy and kat.. must be a triangle.
or maybe even a rhombus,
but these photos aren’t even that mind blowing..
somewhat cool, yes. but it won’t make me stay awake at night or anything. ;)
I’m not sure if anyone noticed but in the second picture the building in the background appears to be on fire or something.
Must be a triangle building though.
P.S Please check out my website.

It’s a normal building, just from a different angle.
i kno someone who has been in it before. he said u could bearly walk in it.
yer weird (ummmmm cow, its called a TREE dingus)
its a 3 sided bilding and it was taken in an angle so it look tthin…i think..wow and i sounded so smrt at first….hee hee hee…
=^.^=
This is a triangular building isn’t it? and you can only see it in one angle. Try Making a triangular prism with paper. Move around until it just looks like one plain sheet of paper. There’s a building like that near where I live. I pass it by with my care then after a few meters I can see it’s actually triangular. =]
Peace,

all but a few of you are unbelievably stupid. the picture of the bldg at night has a shadow on the left side. now photoshop the black out and put in blue. man. you’re dumb
this is no digital trick, i have been there and seen it. looks amazing when you are actually there, i went on the boat trip and saw it when we sailed past, looks like it leans over the river when you are in the boat
HOLY Shizzz I wish I was that skinny! Lol
theree’s a building like this near my house. as your driving towards it, it looks like a super thin t.v. screen, but when you drive past it, the other half just…pops out.
triangular buildings! Duh!
dude… i seriously need to know what diet that building is on cause man it sure works…
Whoa! that is really thin! was it taken at a wierd angle or somethin??
it is a L, looking south. well, thats what my friend said.
it is a triangel biulding skinny at 1 sid but think at the other
can it be its a triangle
if you go to the rivercenter and buy tickets for the river walk boat tour…they’ll show it to you :)
it’s the building equivilant to Nicole Richie!
Try looking at the other side of the building and you’ll see that it has a point or whatever, making it just as fat as any other. My diet’s better, me more skinny than building!
oh my gosh can’t you see it a triaglar prisim if it was trianglar it would be flat on the floor as well….
Also, the building is not flat. You know in spider-man the place where Peter Parker works? The buildings probably like that but it is parallel with the corner. I apologize for ruining yall fun.
Heres a copy of my last comment:
That’s not no transparent window! If you look closely at the bottom-right hand corner;there is a tree reflection on the window! The sky is all blue; that make’s the window look transparent! Yall r so blind..(and im so smart lol=))
lol

Can we please have a moment of silence to remember the day of 9/11 when somebody stupidly let a smiley fly a plane and scraped the other half of this building….
(Dang i couldn’t put the smiley)
(i talk too much)
