The ugliest thing I've ever seen in the building they constructed at the front of Paragon Station, Hull (not been able to successfully find a picture of it). Built in the 60s on the front of a listed train station completely eliminating all view of it's front.

well, that's just because the modern building sucks ass, not that modern ( and post modern) buildings and older ( neo-gothic, in this case? ) can't go together.
