Help find this building....

... from my half assed possibly dreamt/made up description.

Okay so i saw this building ages ago and i cant remember what it was called or where it was etc, ill try to describe it:

- Large building
- 5-6 floors maybe?
- Possibly a library of some sort (maybe part of a university/collage)
- Looked like an evil overlords HQ or a secret police headquarters, in fact it would have made a great ministry of love
- Narrow long vertical windows
- Very imposing look
- Much grey concrete in it
- Modernist architecture (i think that's what these types of buildings are described as)

The white house, including the underground American citizen torture chamber.

Nope, it was newer looking than that (not as castle-ish) although the color is about right.

Too nice/friendly looking.

It actually IS an evil overlord's HQ. Reverse psychology I suppose.

:awe:

What im thinking of is closer to this thing:

I mean it dosent look exactly like that, but its a similar buggery ugly architecture.

Found it!! I didnt dream it up after all :awe:

Robarts library at the university of toronto...

If any building says ministry of love its this one...

I was a bit off with the 5-6 floors and apparently this is called "brutalist architecture" not modernist.
